I have been lucky enough to work with Josh for several years and in all our experience together, Josh has played a critical role given his architectural capabilities and his ‘get stuff done’ attitude.

Outside of his technical prowess, Josh is all around a great person with strong communication skills and empathy for his peers. Josh is a 10x engineer and it’s with high regard that I recommend him.

Josh went above and beyond in our project by ensuring that our resulting web application was truly a joy for users to interact with. Josh's passion and talent is for making websites look genuinely beautiful, and during the time that I've known him, I've seen him transform multiple websites to be more responsive and user-friendly.

Josh is also incredibly detail-oriented and does not believe in cutting corners during the development process.
