I am writing a research publication exploring the impact of closed social media groups on the mental health of South Asian women.

I managed Mansanjam while she interned for us during the summer of 2023. My overall experience with Mansanjam was very positive. She is a hard worker who dives right into a project without hesitation. It's worth noting that our company works with a very difficult and complex subject matter. This can be intimidating to some, especially more junior folks, but wasn't a problem for Mansanjam.
She worked on a variety of projects for Strata. Most notably, she redesigned a module that went into production and is going to be used by our clients. She followed the design thinking process well, accounted for limitations, and built a collaborative working relationship with the product manager. She improved her design skills by bringing her work to critique and iterating based on other designers' feedback.
Additionally, she synthesized research done by another designer and created a User Profile that will referenced by many others in our organization. She did an effective job of distilling down a lot of information into a concise research asset.
Managing Mansanjam was truly a pleasure & she would be an asset to any team she joins!
