“I worked with Brandon on a 3 month engagement that took us to different countries in Africa. The project was tough with tight deadlines. Brandon worked as the Application Architect and brought a lot of experience to the project which resulted in exceptional deliverables. His experience with the application architecture and the client also contributed to the effective management of the time-lines. He is always willing to help and a great person to have as a colleague and friend with a brilliant sense of humour and compassion.”
