Shweta has been a wonderful colleague and mentor to communication design students at Pearl Academy. She is also a highly talented designer and illustrator. She is a highly analytical and strategic thinker and at the same time an endlessly supportive, giving and educating mentor. I have seen work with students in a manner that brings out their finest potential under. You can count on her to discover new ways of doing things, to connect differing perspectives and to improvise workable solutions. She has developed significant experience in the field of education technology, and has worked on a range of impressive new media projects. She is a great team player and will be an asset to any group she joins. I will always value her perceptiveness, creativity and willingness to collaborate. I wish her the best and hope to work with her again.

Shweta was an incredibly creative member of the Future Thought team. She was not only well-versed in design and animation tools, but also brought a best-in-class aesthetic sense to all her work. I'd recommend Shweta for any creative role.
