“I have had the pleasure to work with Kaushik a plethora of times over the last year. He is a Renaissance Man; an extremely talented individual who deeply understands an array of topics. We worked together as Professional Chairs where he helped put together and give workshops on the topics of “Resumes and Cover Letters” and “How to Effectively use LinkedIn.” We have also worked on multiple teams with one another where he has showcased his teamwork, engineering talents, and keen business acumen. Kaushik is mature and talented well beyond his years—I could not recommend an individual more highly.”
