“I had the pleasure of mentoring Von Taylor during the summer of 2024. Von joined our team as a Full Stack Developer and quickly demonstrated his ability to learn and adapt. He proficiently picked up Angular, React, Redux, GraphQL, updated SQL scripts, and created new endpoints to retrieve data for our widely used production web application. Von’s communication skills, both written and verbal, were excellent. He was an attentive listener and an effective presenter. His ability to quickly get up to speed and complete his assignments on time was impressive. I was truly pleased with Von’s performance and would recommend him without hesitation.”
