"Tanvi is one of the most committed and ambitious students I have had the chance to mentor. Her work has been quite innovative and she uses her imagination to the fullest. Her concepts are unique, and her deliverables have always been up to mark.

Her entire design process has always been professional, practical, and a fantastic illustration of a well-planned project roadmap. I was impressed by Tanvi's attention to detail and the calibre of her work. Delivering engaging visuals and projects are crucial skills that Tanvi has a strong grip on, as well as being aware of current trends in graphic and UI design."

"Although still a student, one of the many things that impress me about Tanvi are her versatility - she utilizes her experience and design sensibility to guide her through the most challenging tasks, regardless of the level of complexity.

Dedicated, professional, and a natural leader, Tanvi is always striving to get better at what she does and is always looking for ways, some unexpected, to uncover and explore new opportunities to learn and continue to grow, as I have seen in class, where she easily takes the lead and delivers with the confidence of a seasoned professional, with great energy and an enviable sense of humor."

"Throughout the time I've taught Tanvi, I observed that she was always inquisitive, thoughtful in her approach, and demonstrated leadership qualities while working on the team project. And, she did so with an excellent
attitude, an open mind, and a dedicated work ethic. Tanvi is disciplined, responsible, and has a kind and engaging nature.

Her interest in the field of contextual / user-centered research is evident through her joy and enthusiasm. Her strong contributions to the team and role as both researcher and project manager led her group to unique, well-supported insights and recommendations for action and next steps to their target client."
