"Greg is your developer of choice if you're looking not only for high quality results but also discipline and well structured code quality. A delight to work with, wonderful team player, honest and truly reliable. During this job, we needed someone to comply with very high expectations (where several other five star rated developers failed repeatedly). Greg was the only one to pass our test period and delivered the same, exceptional high quality during the whole project. Highly recommended!"

"Greg is by far the BEST Elancer I have ever worked with. He is extraordinarily knowledgeable about technology --- easy to work with --- accommodating to what I don't know --- ready and willing to do whatever is needed. He gets to the heart of the matter and provides both wise counsel on the use of technology and excellent technical advice on how to get your project done.
