Testimonials
"Working with Deepika has been an invaluable skillful experience. She employed my services to assist with her small businesses under the Hayagriva brand. She exemplifies gentleness, patience, and practices for fair pay and equal opportunities. She goes above and beyond for those who work for her, expecting professionalism, basic human decency, and upholding high standards of quality. During a personal emergency, she graciously allowed my five-year-old son and me to stay at her establishment rent-free until I got back on my feet. She has extended her hospitality to many individuals seeking temporary shelter at her establishment, regardless of age, gender, race, background, or income, demonstrating warmth, care, and compassion. Trustworthy and protective, she creates a sense of comfort. Although she does not have children yet, she is highly observant and intuitive regarding safety, well-being, and the needs of children. Nothing slips past her. She nurtures and takes exceptional care of her two cats, which she loves and considers more than family."

"Deepika demonstrates meticulous attention to detail in event planning and theme parties, ensuring comprehensive coverage in all aspects of the event. She holds extensive expertise in the Food Business and Food Styling across diverse cultures. She has offered advisory services to my acquaintances within the food industry. Specifically, she assisted an acquaintance with product management and menu planning during the launch of his food truck, providing guidance to maximize revenue and enhance operational efficiency. Her proficiency in marketing strategies is noteworthy. Furthermore, Escape Artist Studio delivered exemplary services in designing menus, logos, business cards, and flyers, while also managing influencer outreach and social media marketing."

"Deepika has exceptional skill in personal styling and the curation of fashion and home décor. Her selections are consistently well-coordinated for various occasions, body types, cultures, and individual preferences. As a fashion designer, she has designed and developed numerous collections of clothing and accessories from scratch. She graciously gifted me one of her finest creations, an ombre purple and violet dress with gold trimmings. I was immensely proud to wear it and share it online. I quickly lost count of the exposure, likes, and comments that ensued. It was an unexpected yet mutually beneficial outcome, marking the beginning of my journey as an influencer. To add to this testimonial, I am aware of occasions where she has dedicated time from her hectic schedule to assist friends and colleagues as a personal shopper and stylist. For example, she assisted her colleague, Angel, in revamping her entire professional wardrobe before Angel’s interview at KPMG in San Jose. Deepika is humble in demeanor."

Testimonials
"Deepika and I were colleagues within the direct tax team during her tenure as a Tax Associate at KPMG. I was the Senior Director. Deepika demonstrated meticulousness in team development apart from tax-related work and transfer pricing. Her non-tax expertise included detailed trip advisories and planning. She organized an adventure trip for our entire Direct Tax team, which encompassed forest hikes, booking tree houses as accommodations, safari jeeps, and wholesome cuisine, complemented by team-building and icebreaker activities around a bonfire in the evenings. We have maintained contact since that time, and I follow her on social media, observing her ongoing venture in planning and organizing trips for diverse groups of individuals. Whether one is interested in island hopping across Hawaii, exploring California and the Bay Area, hiking through the Southwest, road trips through the East Coast, or embarking on photography expeditions, she offers comprehensive options for all budgets. Her itineraries are both enjoyable and extensive. She ensures the entire experience is comfortable and seamless, alleviating any concerns. Furthermore, she considers dietary requirements and prioritizes inclusivity and accessibility in her planning. Her team-building activities include art, trivia challenges, bowling, visits to restaurants, pubs, escape rooms, paintball, and VR gaming centers. Her graphic design and digital marketing for the same is commendable."

"Well done! The survey is thoughtfully structured with 35 varied questions, combining qualitative and quantitative inputs. Including demographics, finance, and feature preference adds good depth. Good job summarizing pain points and key insights like the need for comprehensive services and centralized documentation. The recommendations are practical and clearly derived from user data. Excellent personas — both distinct and relatable (“Neko Atsume” and “Kat Daadi”). Each reflects realistic goals, frustrations, and motivations relevant to pet owners. Nicely humanized. Strong empathy maps showing emotional understanding of users. The “Say, Think, Do, Feel” aspects align with the personas and show thoughtful reflection on user needs. The presentation is cohesive, logically structured, and visually well-organized. The flow from survey to insights to personas shows clarity in thought and design intent."
