Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with Andrew while at BASK Digital and quickly learned he is an individual that takes thoughtful action. While another teammate and I spoke through development issues a client was facing, Andrew took time first to listen to our problems, added thoughtful options, and synthesized the vision of our action plan into drafts for us before the next meeting with the client. This kept us organized, accountable and moving forward with timely resolutions. Andrew is flexible and made our teamwork a priority. He is insightful, thinks carefully about the questions at hand, and is intentional with his feedback, adding value and quality to our work.
