“Ajit was part of a team of students from UC Berkeley that helped us understand the energy efficiency industry better. He showed great leadership skills in managing the project deliverables and timelines, strong strategic thinking abilities in clearly understanding and capturing the industry dynamics and excellent presentation skills in delivering the information to the marketing team. I am happy to recommend him and will be a great asset in any project he works on!”
