“She's brilliant, driven, and incredibly creative. Don't ask her to do something average, predictable, or even traditional. Ask her for something beautiful, compelling, meaningful and carefully executed and she just might be perfect.” |

“Among the many excellent UI designers/experts, Kavita is one of the few who has what it takes to design software as a piece of art. Kavita is a true artist, who loves to work closely with engineers, yet maintains her design principles and artistic values. My experience working with her at PeopleSoft Business Network was one of the most eye opening user interface design experiences I ever had.” |
| Elaine Zhou, Application Development Director (Colleague at PeopleSoft) |

“Kavita likes to understand the big picture. When coming up with designs for Workday, she would approach us developers to understand the functionality as well as the capability of the system. She liked to design things not only for the short term fix, but for the lasting long term use. Kavita has a great personality and gets along with everyone. She's an excellent team member and a worth contributor. She may be quiet at first, but you just wait til she warms up. :)" |

“Bali is the kind of artist whose passion for artistic integrity and the creative process is unbounded and infectious." |
| Rupal Shah, India West magazine, (March 29, 2002 issue) |
| . |
“Kavita Bali captures the world with a definitive eye, stopping the flow of time and space through her lenses. She shares with us some transcendental moments, where the feminine body locates itself against a world that parades at times against a canvass of demands, and in other times, strolls in the lazy glow of memory." |
