Vivek is professional, enthusiastic, creative, and a top-notch UX/VD lead. Vivek and I collaborated on a complex login redesign, where he delivered a high-quality product under an extremely tight timeline. He achieved this by keeping the user in mind at all times and by deftly managing many internal stakeholders. In addition to this specific initiative, collaborating with Vivek is always a pleasure. He’s smart, has lots of great ideas, and is always willing to pitch in.

I have worked with Vivek for over two years now. And if i have to quote one word that defines him is humility. Don't get me wrong, he is awesome at what he does. One of the best UX folks I have come across. But mix that with humility and you get an incredible team member. Keep up the good work Vivek, hope our paths cross again someday.!
