Hussein is a prime example of someone who is driven to accomplish not just the task at-hand due to his laser focus, but to also lead and develop others including myself at the same time. He is professional, well-versed, and a great lead. I believe he can accomplish any task given and will produce high quality results. I have been most grateful to work under him and although at the time I was just a contractor, he treated me no different than his fellow employees. I highly recommend him.

I have enjoyed the opportunity to work with Hussein. He is one of the best Project Managers I have worked with. He was really good at minimizing the time-wasting meetings and status reporting through the effective use of technology. Hussein made it possible for us to focus more time on getting our work done which was good for the project and good for the developers.
He is intelligent, has got the spirit of an entrepreneur, and has lots of great ideas. I highly recommend Hussein.
