“Rakshit reported to me at Docomo for several years. I had previously worked in markets outside of the payments space and therefore did not have extensive knowledge of alternative payments. Despite our being located on different sides of the globe, Rakshit served as a key resource that helped me quickly get up to speed. Rakshit was an expert in global alternative payment methods (APMs), understanding the businesses, partners, and compliance requirements associated with them. As we entrusted him with more responsibilities, he rapidly expanded his knowledge and skills, enabling him to excel in the market by familiarizing himself with the merchant/media (customer) side of the business. Rakshit consistently performed exceptionally well in targeting and securing merchant opportunities, establishing himself as a trusted source of information for both merchants and APMs. I consider him an APM expert with the ability to learn new areas and to assist team members. He is customer focused both in terms of sales and post sales customer success - a solid asset to any team. I was pleased to see his dedication and growth and to reward him with the promotion to VP.”
