Coby is a hungry young developer with talent bursting out the seams. He’s also one of the kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Already experienced in Frontend, he’s got complementary skillsets in cloud-native and backend development. I rarely see someone so early in their career that can call themselves full-stack, but Coby breaks the mold.
