I happen to review design documents of both concrete and steel structures designed by Sanjay. I had found them thorough and well presented. The documents were approved with minimum comments. During discussions I have found Sanjay to be well versed with the civil engineering and structural engineering fundamentals. Sanjay would be a prized possession for any company that hires him.
Bharti Pruthi, Asst. Manager, Procurement Project Management - LTHE
Sanjay makes an excellent co worker, has amazing team spirit, and solution driven personality. His technical expertise makes him stand out in the crowd. He is well versed with Euro and American codes and the best person to seek advice when it comes to Seismic analysis and developing VBA spreadsheets. His organizing skills and calm approach to multitasking makes him capable of handling multiple units at a time. He has successfully taken knowledge transfer sessions on RCDC, Staad and mentored trainees, draftsmen and modellers.
Giridhar Ravikumar, Senior Associate Intern, PWC Chicago
Very few people have got the ideal mix of natural curiosity and attention to detail that Sanjay exhibits. I got the opportunity to work with Sanjay on a couple of projects at Amec Foster Wheeler. Sanjay's level minded approach in the most pressing of situations is something that had a calming effect over the entire team. What stands out of Sanjay's personality is his outgoing and empathetic demeanor which gives him an amicable persona. His personality backed by his strong technical skills makes him a great asset to any organization.
