“Ishan Khanna is a talented developer and a natural leader who was a lucky find for our project. As a Google Summer of Code intern with the Mifos Initiative, he singlehandedly built out our Android app for financial inclusion field officers. His confidence and drive is unmatched yet he takes direction well and completes a project with great ambition and initiative. What also sets Ishan apart is his leadership; he's articulate and able to guide and motivate others whether it be mentoring a high school student for Google Code-In or facilitating senior Google developers during GoogleServe volunteer days. He is generous in sharing of his talents, passionate about OS, and patient enough to mentor others as seen by his eager to help his peers during Google Summer of Code, his ongoing commitment to Mifos as a contributor and mentor of other interns, and the many times he's evangelized our project across universities in Delhi. Ishan is poised to do great things. He has vision and foresight beyond his years, boldness and curiosity to explore new paths, and the talent and coding repertoire to solidly execute and deliver. ”
