Words from my co-workers…
"I worked with Arnav on the Multi-Device Experience project within Samsung's IoT & Wearables team, and what stood out most was how naturally he thought in systems rather than screens. While the rest of us were often heads down on individual flows, he'd already be thinking about how the experience held together across devices, a rare instinct that came, I think, from his background as an architect and industrial designer. That background made him a true end to end thinker; he could take a fuzzy, abstract idea and picture exactly how it would actually look and feel, well before the rest of us could get our heads around it. We worked well together because we pushed each other, genuinely, not performatively. There was a comrade like energy to it: we were both invested in getting things right, and that raised the bar for the whole team. Arnav's other real strength was storytelling. He had a knack for taking something messy and technical and turning it into a narrative that stakeholders across functions could actually align around, which mattered a lot on a project with as many moving pieces as ours. If our paths cross again, I'd work with him without hesitation."
"Arnav was part of the MDE and intelligence team where he enthusiastically contributed to two crucial projects; Connected device experiences & Samsung account. He has displayed a solid foundation in design methods and navigates problems with a critical mindset. His critical thinking and meticulous approach to system design helped navigating the complexities of MDE projects. As his Design Manager, I can say with confidence he can be valuable asset to any team looking to solve complex challenges."
"During my time working with Arnav "ji", was truly amazed by his exceptional ability for Non-Linear Thinking. Designing a product at the concept-level is already challenging, but Arnav "ji" takes it to another level by maintaining an equally meticulous eye for detail when working on IMAGINARY products. Personally, I have learned a great deal about design thinking from him, and I have no doubt that you will continue to excel in your future endeavors.
Arnav ji is not only a valuable team player, but he also possesses a patient ear, making him an excellent colleague.
I am grateful for your contributions to TropoGo and the dedication you showed, especially during those late nights and long hours.

As you move forward, I encourage you to continue setting the industry standards just as you did during your time at TropoGo. Your ability to raise the bar and strive for excellence will undoubtedly lead to continued success wherever you go."
"Redesigning of the hand pump" and "Solving sanitation for salt pan workers" were two important projects that Arnav, a student of mine at the IDC School of Design, IIT Bombay, worked on under my guidance and supervision. He demonstrated a strong foundation in designs basics and an analytical attitude throughout these projects. We collaborated on and published a book titled "Design for community: A hand pump design for user convenience" later in the summer of 2023, and we awarded him the "Student Innovation Award" in recognition of his constant commitment to finding solutions for complex design problems. In addition, Arnav has been managing and contributing to online design courses imparted by IDC School of Design through NPTEL (National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning) while working as a full-time UX designer. Certainly, I consider Arnav to be strong individual who will be a great asset to any team he works with."
"I have worked with Arnav on Samsung Account growth improvements. User research done by his team was very useful and fundamental for proposing solutions to our HQ counterparts. A few of those solutions were implemented in Samsung One UI 6 (globally). He is very enthusiastic and always up for a discussion on random thoughts that could develop into potential ideas."
"I've known Arnav since graduation. He possesses acute acumen for design and arts from the basics. A multi talented personality, diverse skillsets and always keen to share knowledge among his peers set him class apart. His enthusiastic and practical approach for design has always amazed me. He is always open to ideas and provide honest feedback to develop the design. He is surely going to be a valuable asset in any organisation given his strong worth ethic."
