Ani Sharma Email & Phone Number

Ani Sharma is a Associate Director, Enterprise Innovation - R and D at AbbVie. She is proficient in Kannada. Colleagues describe her as "I worked closely with Ani and his team, MicroMulsion, throughout the spring of 2014 as a mentor in the University of Texas Longhorn Startup class. Ani and I interacted on nearly a daily basis and I found him to be a remarkably talented, hard working entrepreneur and leader. Beyond his intellectual capabilities - which make him a quick learner, he has high analytical skills to identify key issues in business. Most importantly, Ani is very enthusiastic- a person with passion and applies himself fully while being a conscientious team player. In our first meeting, Ani stated his team’s goal was to transform their senior design project into a fundable company by the end of the semester. Ani threw himself into the effort and by the end of the semester Micromulsion achieved their goal, receiving funding from one of the most prominent, high profile investors in the country. While every startup is a collective effort, Ani provided the primary leadership, ambition and consistent focus required for the team to succeed. Ani is a goal oriented achiever and I expect to see many more successes from him in the future." and "I've worked with Anirudh on a pretty regular basis on engineering and physics labs. He is incredibly bright and is very good at problem-solving and communicating solutions effectively. Many times, I have worked with engineering students who have been poor at collaborating or who speak down to those with whom they work. Anirudh is the opposite way; he is very modest, but still very strong when it comes to voicing how he feels a problem should be approached. He will be a coveted asset in whatever field he decides to enter. I recommend picking him up while you still can."
