“I had the pleasure of managing Mohana Rupa during her summer internship at Text-Em-All. During the internship, she proved herself to be very bright and picked up on a set of technologies that were completely new to her. By the end of her internship, Mohana had written production code in both our C# API and our SQL Server database and had written thorough unit tests of the API code.
Mohana will be an asset to any engineering team, and I recommend her highly.”
