Bio
Rahul Rajan (He/Him/His)
Not very often do you come across an individual as eager and dynamic as Sayam. Having guided him during his internship and having managed him for a part of his BLP stint, I have always found myself impressed with the plethora of options he brings to the table. Sayam is synonymous with the so-called "idea guy" of the organization, and more importantly, while he thinks out of the box, he doesn't think out of practicality. He has shown himself ready for every challenge thrown at him, and is always eager to get more on his plate. He is very proactive, result oriented and highly creative in his approach. He has excellent analytical skills and has shown himself to be an inspirational manager during his sales stint. I'm sure he would be a great asset to any team.

Sayam was one of the most energetic student in class. He was also in the Neev team and did a fabulous job there as well. It was amazing how he could immediately apply his learning to practice. He is also very enterprising and this trait will take him far
