    What's unique about Neel is his ability to be strategic in his thinking, while also being able to operationalize that strategy into detailed, tactical execution. He's an excellent critical thinker with a broad-world perspective.

    Neel is someone who has an expansive range of knowledge, and has an insatiable curiosity to learn more. He's well read, well researched, well spoken, and most importantly, a great person.”

  • “I have been fortunate to have worked with Neel on youth education initiatives… his genuine and enthusiastic support of our work at YELL has helped shape its evolution.

    Neel’s strategic insights have helped us distill the value we deliver to each of our diverse stakeholder groups. As a young organization working on complex systemic change, it has always been challenging for us to communicate the value we deliver clearly and succinctly.

    Neel has invested his time, talent and energy as a strategic advisor to lead the rebranding and repositioning of YELL. Neel brought his network to support this project and these efforts have undoubtedly amplified our impact, gave us confidence in how we communicate and infused our work with a renewed sense of possibilities.

    Neel’s unique perspective and passion for entrepreneurial education will have a lasting impact on Canadian youth.”
