Friends, Colleagues, Managers and Professors

  • I had the pleasure of working with Addvesh while he was president of the Segal Professional Bridge (SPB) student group at Northwestern University. His group was responsible for organizing the PDMA Chicago White Space Challenge. Addvesh was instrumental in recruiting and managing the student team that worked on the competition. Through his leadership, they were able to exceed expectations by growing the challenge to the most universities and teams participating since its inception in 2015. Addvesh's effusive personality is contagious and keeps everyone smiling and eager to contribute. He will make a positive impact and be a wonderful addition to any organization looking to hire him.
