What People have to Say

What People have to Say

Ruchira exceeded expectations in the time we had her on the Chipotle design team. She jumped right in, asked great questions, and enhanced the user experience for the web location finder feature.

Adept at delivering complex wires by breaking down ambiguity and complex requirements - able to collaborate well with stakeholders and team members. She takes constructive criticism well and comes up with more ideas.

In our AT&T project, I really admired Ruchira's ability to stay calm and positive in difficult situations. She understood the development team's problems and quickly proposed suitable solutions for changes in designs.
