  • I have rarely come across a talent who stood out like Vineel. I had the pleasure of working with Vineel for two and half years at RIG APS, collaborating on several projects. Vineel’s ability to handle multiple projects was commendable and improved in the turn around time of our team. No matter how tense a meeting, Vineel made sure everyone left with a smile. As a team member or a lead, Vineel earns my highest recommendation.

  • When I think about someone who is able to combine both art and technology with perfection and focus, Vineel name comes to my mind. He likes to deliver the concept, the idea behind the things that he creates. He is respectful and able to communicate his ideas and contribute to the organization. He captures the essence of the design and is able to translate all of this into the UX to a real good job in whatever media. For all these good reasons, whoever has worked with him, know that a project conducted by Vineel is in good hands.

  • I met Vineel when we were both UX Designers at OnBlick, building our beta version. Vineel is the best design thinker I've ever seen, and he delivered most of the designs than most people do in a quarter. Vineel's fantastic instincts made him an amazing partner and a best friend and I'm happy I got the chance to work with him.
