Andrew worked on a team of mine for 8 months, where we built a backend (SOA) data processing system. During this time, I saw how he puts great care into solving problems from many angles. Having implementing an Agile process within this team, he was a keen adopter and was able to cultivate the ideas and own many of the decisions we made to improve our teams work efforts. I continue to highly regard Andrew, and I can ensure many more future successes like this.

I worked with Andrew on a complex software project for a number of months. The quality of his code was excellent and his innovation and creativity were a great help to the project in general.

I would recommend Andrew for any software project.

Andrew is a great team player and works well within large cross-functional teams. On our project, Andrew was a key resource in evaluating the technologies that were to be applied to solving a client's needs. Andrew has a strong grasp on analyzing code complexity and was able to quickly identify anti-patterns within the client's code-base, that once addressed would reduce their operational costs. This was a key win on our project.

I would not hesitate to work with Andrew again in the future.

Although Andrew was only with TMVSE a short time, he demonstrated that he is a proficient, diligent engineer who easily integrates well with a team, has a good knowledge of C# and .Net, and has an excellent approach to work.

Straight up: Andrew is one of the smartest people that I've ever met.

We worked together during the design phase of a website build for a company that is very, very large, and has many, many systems. Not a problem for Andrew: He was able to understand, map, diagram and effectively communicate their application architecture. Collaboration with him was essential to designing a system that was technically feasible.

Andrew was also able to make insightful recommendations around improving the client's application architecture with respect to performance, scalability and cost.

Andrew's always up for a challenge and he can tackle them with ease. Better yet, he can explain the most technical and challenging things in simple terms, making him an effective communicator to clients, as well as cross-discipline team members.

And probably the most important thing: Andrew is really great to work with. He's extremely funny, easy to talk to and well-cultured. He tells great stories and can recommend some pretty enjoyable things to do. I'd work with him again in a heartbeat.

"Andrew takes a lot of pride in his work and shows a lot of dedication for high quality code delivery. Andrew is also a good communicator and is open to new ideas."

Andrew is a diligent worker, always ready to accomplish the task at hand. He will do whatever research is required to get the job done. He is realistic and has an engineering perspective on estimating and completing work. His approachability and skill in verbal and written communication makes it easy and efficient to convey ideas, designs, and general day to day activities. I can vouch for Andrew as a motivation for the rest of the team, large or small.

Andrew has the ability to be a strong member of any team. He works well with others, and is able to accomplish tasks assigned to him on time and with consistant quality. He is able to quickly pick up the details of the problem space which allow him to develop a good understanding required to implement the best solution.
