To whom it may concern
Calvin Govender reported to me during his time at Flicker Leap between August 2017 until February 2020. I am the Creative Director at the company. Calvin started out as an intern and progressed to become a part of the design and marketing team. I am pleased to recommend him as a potential employee.
Calvin began by helping out with data capturing (loading products for online stores) and grew and learnt from there. On the web design team, he assisted with the design and layout of various websites, implementing WordPress websites (content, graphics and ecommerce) and assisted with user testing. As part of the marketing team he helped with the creation of social strategies and always had valuable input and ideas. Calvin was responsible for the creation of social media posts and videos within the company and he has become great at both video animations and illustrations. Calvin is responsible, polite and friendly. He communicates well and works well as part of a team. He is willing to learn and finds and practices new techniques on his own initiative. His ability to adapt to many different tasks and responsibilities, with a positive attitude, made him an asset to my team.
Please feel free to contact me should you have any further questions or if you would like to discuss anything further.
Regards
Hayley Diamandis
