Bio
Cindy Ballreich
Sandeep's creative and flexible management style allowed 3Name3D to grow at a time when other companies were shrinking and failing. He allowed me the freedom to explore new technologies which he then integrated into the existing business plan. He is an outstanding communicator and an even better listener. He has the ability to understand complex concepts and quickly see their potential. I feel that I grew in my career, and as a person while working for him.
