Testimonials

Andrew is a cheat code. He is the cheat code to a modern, scalable, totally kicks-ass web architecture. When you ask ChatGPT a tricky coding question, it goes to him for the answer. While other developers are debugging their code, Andrew just stares at the screen until the bugs apologize and fix themselves. His keyboard doesn't have a backspace key because he never makes a mistake.

Andrew is at the top of my list for developers I've led, worked for, or worked with. What really makes him unique, aside from his love of the color yellow, is the breadth of his knowledge, his willingness to help push design in a better direction, and his ability to quickly produce very high-quality solutions. I feel sorry for the alternate timeline where our startup did not find Andrew.

Go ahead… it's ok to cheat!

If you want to guarantee that development of your project will be successful - then hire Andrew. Andrew has been pinnacle to us right from our first line of code - all the way through to what is now a highly successful online insurance business in the UK, which has received continued industry praise for the technology we've built. He's been a key architect in what has become a highly sophisticated online insurance platform that competitors are struggling to replicate.

He's highly proactive, and takes pride and ownership in his role. He regularly contributed great ideas, or more often, pragmatically went ahead and implemented what he knew would be good for the company. I don't think we would have achieved half as much as we did without Andrew, and we have much to thank him for making our jobs as company leaders so much easier.
