Danilo Araya

As you can see in his profile, Adrian manages several technologies, and i can testify that he can develop excellent quality projects using all that (combined). I interacted with Adrian when he worked in a project that combined a complex user interface using flex, and a big complex business engine in java. It was a good experience to work with him because he have good communication skills and personal relationships.

Adrian is a really great communicator who has a good sense of the little details that make the difference between an okay developer and a great developer! He also brings to every project excellent problem solving and interpersonal skills, making him a real asset.
