“I have worked with Vishal for many years both at Dataminr and Bloomberg. It is quite rare to meet someone as industrious and talented as him. His innate curiosity, strive for innovation and improvements to process in anything he does allows him to set standards and establish best practices in most of the projects he worked on. A relentless team player, Vishal leads by example through timely and precise collaboration, mentorship, encouraging others to want to know more and do better. He is capable of balancing several complex cross-team projects at the same time, while keeping managers happy. Whether B2B or B2C, Vishal has the customer firmly in mind when making well thought out suggestions to product and data teams regarding data structure and user experience with the UI or overall content composition. His ability to attain outstanding results is largely because he is technologically adept, data inclined and analytically minded. Yet, Vishal is able to see the larger picture, communicate clearly on all levels and successfully get his ideas across to a variety of audiences. By far one of the more capable people I have had the pleasure to know and work with.”
