“Not everyone is lucky; I was, as I had my chance to work with Akash for almost 1.5 years. I could say many things about him - how he helped me find my place in the team and pointed out mistakes in my communication style, how he taught me to split big tasks into smaller chunks and prioritize them, or how he showed me how to stand my own ground in discussions while being open to new ideas. But I think the most important thing is that working with him was ridiculously fun and energizing. I will miss working with this guy - a lot. After seeing what Akash did for our team, I can confidently say that any team that will have him as a leader is going to be incredibly lucky.”
