"To say that Jay is a skilled engineer and a dependable team player would not be enough to capture how great of an engineer he is. During the times I directly managed him, Jay was as hard working as they came, dedicated to growing himself as an engineer and honing his craft. He embraced feedback and consistently jumped on opportunities to learn new frameworks and technology that would add to his growing wheelhouse."

"10 out of 10, I highly recommend and would want him on my team again. Jay is a rare developer that makes your life easier. When Jay is placed on a project it doesn’t matter what it is, he consistently delivers. If a project requires a new language or skill set he’s unfamiliar with, he takes great initiative to learn and comes up to speed quickly."

"Tasks were not simply done, but built with a view of what would be best for the end user in regards to UI/UX. Knowing Jay was assigned a task meant knowing it would be done quickly, effectively, and thoroughly. If we have the pleasure of working together again in the future, I will go to great lengths to ensure he's on any project I'm working on."

"Through many conversations, it became clear that Jay was not only an amicable communicator, but also an open-minded, forward thinker who understood that honing skills was equally important as acquiring new ones. Jay's incredible work ethic, executing and delivering even through weekends to meet deadlines, makes him a highly reliable and dedicated individual. Look no further for a well-rounded engineer that's capable of providing value from day one on any team."
