        I had the pleasure to work with Aditya during his time at Rolls-Royce Energy. Aditya always seeked challenges to learn more about Gas Turbine Operation and Theory to be able to make succinct and effective decisions when providing his technical advice. Aditya works well with teams and is easy to get along with and seems to always be in a good mood, which is great and very contagious in group enviroments. I would highly recommend Aditya to any employers who seek someone who is willing to learn, contribute, and work efficiently in teams.
