TESTIMONIALS

"I cannot say enough great things about Darshini to express what an exemplary worker she is. Darshini has the best team-first attitude you will find. She approaches each task with enthusiasm and never backs down from a challenging design. While I was her director at Ashley Furniture, she amazed me with how quickly she grasped new technologies and she is always finding ways to expand on her knowledge of all things UX. It would be difficult to find a better candidate for a Senior level UX Architect than Darshini."
