Recommendation
Devon has effectively replaced
two senior web designers and
carried the full team workload
while also mentoring our new
graphic designer. In addition
to that, he has improved the
quality and timeliness of our
email product. His proactivity in
monitoring this channel has again
never been seen in my tenure
here.
I’m not even sure how to
express the level of collaboration
Devon brings to the group. He’s
continually refining process for
everyone’s benefit and this is
echoed in his team’s feedback
of what he brings to the team
from his flexible attitude, his
impressive capacity, and his
delightful disposition.
