I appreciated his thoughtfulness and professionalism throughout the process." Upwork client. ---- ★★★★★ "I've been raving about how easy Richard made it to have my code reviewed. The feedback was invaluable!" Upwork client, website audit. ---- ★★★★★ “Richard was the best freelancer (of many) I've worked with on Upwork. He is very dependable, quick and clear in communication, and I could trust that he could handle little hiccups independently. I did not need to micro-manage at all and was relieved to simply see the work being done in a fair and thoughtful way with great attention to detail. In the one instance where there was a hiccup (Wordpress glitch-not user error), Richard offered to absorb the 1-2 hrs it would take for him to re-do it sufficiently, even though it wasn't his fault. Standup guy, skilled, and great to work with. I'll be back next time I have a job that fits his skillset, for sure!” Upwork client. ---- ★★★★★ “Rick did great work and we were all thoroughly impressed. Highly recommended!” Upwork client. ---- ★★★★★ “Richard (Rick) has been doing a great job for us. He's organised, communicates clearly and does high quality work.
