    Ashish is a super talented developer who just gets it. He's going to do great things and that he's already applied his talents a variety of technologies demonstrates a great capacity for learning. Highly recommended, will hire again!

  • Akansh Sinha - CEO at CarBiqi & ServX - A Y Combinator company

    Ashish was one of the very first people I hired at ServX to develop our entire iOS platform from scratch. He is an excellent developer, with his deep analytical skills always ready to take on challenging problems. His problem solving capabilities are on-par with some of the best tech minds that I've had the pleasure of meeting, and the way he breaks down a problem into the basic fundamentals is exceptional. He also has a very affable persona, making it insanely easy to work with him, and I'm sure that his ability to learn quickly will take him to great places!
