To Whom It May Concern:
It has come to my attention that Mr. VenkatRay Kamath endeavors to improve himself by
obtaining additional education in the near future. Having managed Venkat while we both
worked for the Food and Drug Administration in Silver Spring, MD, I am happy to provide a
testimonial regarding his intelligence, his character, his work ethic, and his great potential.
Our work environment at the FDA was intellectually challenging, politically complex, and
oftentimes high pressure. Without fail, Venkat consistently proved himself as a thoughtful,
bright, and capable professional. He is a quick learner, a hard worker, and a resourceful and
creative problem-solver. As his project manager on a highly technical software integration
project, I marveled at and benefited from Venkat’s technical competence and great work
ethic. He was a tremendous asset on our team. I would be thrilled to work with Venkat
again if the opportunity should ever arise.
If your institution seeks to admit candidates who have the potential to become great
contributors to industry and society, I assure you Venkat is a great fit for your program.
If I may be of further assistance to you regarding VenkatRay Kamath’s application, please
do not hesitate to contact me by phone at (202) 713-1584.
Sincerely,
