Quick, smart, owns his work and is always a pleasure to be around.
— Andre Le Masurier, Chief Creative Officer, EMEA @ R/GA
Ritesh is an energetic and passionate speaker with a unique point of view based on his previous experiences on both agency and client side, giving him an understanding of both and how the business and creative spectrums benefit from each other.
— Armin Vit, Under Consideration
I love the enthusiasm and openness Ritesh brings to a project. He has a talent for translating business objectives into compelling visual solutions. I hope we get to work together again soon!
— Drew Heffron, Practical People
Ritesh was a ball of energy at Brand New. First of all, he worked an all-orange jumper and he brought a fun perspective to the day. But more importantly, the after-parties. Conferences are about meeting people and he went out of his way to be accessible and friendly to conference attendees.
— Jen & Amy Hood, Co-founders & Creative Directors @ Hoodzpah Design
Ritesh is an awesome speaker and his talk attracted an impressive number of attendees. Super unique perspective and style. Book him!
— Zemen Teshome, Education Coordinator @ RGD
He makes something that could be so dry to consider really compelling, fun and funny!!
— Henry Hargreaves, Artist & Photographer
There is a deeply memorable, electrifying quality to both Ritesh’s presentation style AND what he shares with his audience that made him a stand out speaker at Brand New for me personally. Designers often don’t define themselves as critical business thinkers, and Ritesh reminds us that the smartest, strongest solutions demand our voice and our POV as creative strategists.
