Working with Rishikesh has been great. He doesn’t just patch problems, he digs deep to find lasting solutions which is quite difficult in complex industries like healthcare. Always positive and supportive, Rishikesh’s thoughtful questions help us better understand user needs, which lead to designing better products.
Viktor Kyosev, Chief Product Officer @Docquity
Rishi is one of those people that stands out in any group, thanks to his genuine passion and love for design. I was particularly impressed by his user research skills, which are uncommon as an area of focus and strength for most product designers. He conducted user research with me in Vietnam and was a fantastic support and sounding board throughout the challenging project we worked on together.
Vedhika Anoora, UX Researcher @Google
Working with Rishikesh was a pleasure because I knew him to be meticulous, steadfast and all-encompassing in his approach to fleshing out and solving problems. He communicates effectively and is always open to new ideas or alternative points of view. He is also a stickler for process, and pays great attention to detail to even the smallest of things, a rare quality to have in today’s fast paced world.
Arush Pati, Design @DPWorld
I have worked closely with Rishikesh on a project where he has been leading the product design. I have found him to be a very smart individual who articulates ideas and logic clearly. He is always focused on solving user problems above all else and I have learned a lot about product thinking from him. He is a humble person and I am amazed by his attitude in leading and communicating.
