“I've had the pleasure to work with Rohan on various projects and initiatives over the last 2 years as part of Corporate Strategy at Capital One. I've been continually impressed by his ability to break down and crack problems, and how he brings creative thinking to find new angles and insights on whatever topic is at hand. He is particularly adept at communicating with senior and C-suite executives in a manner that is at the high end for those of similar tenure. Rohan leads teams with compassion, and is always willing to give his all to improve things for those around him. Simply put, Rohan is a true team player who brings great skills of his own to the table across many fronts, but who also always puts his teams and groups first as a result of recognizing the value of collaborative partnership.”
