Salil Arekar

Equipped with an analytical mind and clear, task-driven thinking, Salil simplifies things, making everything complex and easy to implement. He sets high standards for efficiency and consistency; at the same time, he is practical enough to acknowledge the caveats facing any execution and is a great team player.
