I know Ramit since quite some time in Bahrain. Ramit is a high quality professional with excellent academic background in Architecture and Project Management. He has all round experience in real estate developments and he is hands on on technical as well as project management roles. He is very familiar with GCC construction & engineering practices. At Ajmera Mayfair, a major real estate development company, he contributed positively on all fronts while we all worked together to firm up investor vision to launch a major iconic development in Bahrain Bay. He managed work from some of major consultancies worldwide. As a technical leader he inspires his team members and strives to contribute beyond his jurisdiction. Interactions with Ramit had been so pleasant and fulfilling both on professional as well as personal fronts. He is an excellent team and will be a great asset to any company he will work for.
