Matt was a trainer on the _nology bootcamp when I attended in January-April 2020. Matt's fundamental knowledge of the content delivered was extremely high, and this was evident with the individual support he provided to trainees during the course. Matt put in hours way beyond what would have been expected to ensure trainees were able to understand and thrive with difficult core concepts, but most importantly was very able to stretch people to get the maximum learning possible from their time. Matt frequently pushed me beyond my comfort zone and encouraged me to really get the most out of what I was learning, and was extremely capable of answering complex questions. I was impressed by Matt taking stock of some difficult queries, and returning a few days later having researched the topic with comprehensive understanding, as well as the ability to pass on that understanding. Matt's personalised teaching became extremely important to the students on the course once the teaching had to be delivered remotely due to the Covid lockdown, and. could not have been more satisfied with the quality of mentoring he provided, in difficult circumstances.

Matt has been a hugely professional and polite member of the team, building strong rapport and a high level of professionalism in his work. Matt has taken on some very challenging aspects of the project and has shown a willingness to go above and beyond the point of call in his work. Through all work and interactions Matt has been personable and friendly while maintaining a considerate and professional approach. While Matt has taken on great challenges and made some excellent suggestions, he has always been careful to not over promise meaning that expectations within the project have been managed well and over delivery has been possible. I would be honoured to work with Matt again on future projects and I would highly recommend him as a valuable addition to any team.
