"I worked with Manali for almost 2-3 years; I have been her mentor and manager during her tenure at Edifecs. I noticed huge transformation in Manali from being college fresher to a mature ux designer. she worked really hard to develop her understanding of the healthcare insurance domain and also to learn the practical aspects of the UX design. She worked on multiple enterprise application design projects and produced impressive ux design."

"Manali Gortekar is a fantastic person to work with. I first met Manali when she was leading the Seattle Ladies that UX chapter. Eventually, I joined the Seattle chapter leadership team and had the opportunity to work closely with Manali. I admire her energy, passion, and commitment to volunteer her time to organize meaningful events for the Seattle UX community. She is a reliable person that I can always count on. I highly recommend Manali for her UX and leadership skills."

"I have been fortunate enough to work with Manali on multiple projects including the winning design for best use of the technology for Intel perceptual computing.

She excels in both analysis and synthesis. She is a natural leader with the benefit of also having exceptional management skills as well. She is creative yet grounded and can make the difficult decisions between designing for predictability or making the choice to design for validity."
