I enthusiastically recommend Eli for their outstanding performance as our Data Science Captain at Bantr, the TV-centric Social Network. Drawing from their experiences in computer science and practical coding, Eli has skillfully blended their talents into our startup's ecosystem, leading multiple projects from digital user acquisition to establishing benchmarks for engagement, even presenting on current events that impact overall strategy. Their technical know-how, coupled with an interdisciplinary problem-solving approach, has consistently delivered innovative solutions to our data challenges. Eli’s work is even more commendable, given the ever-changing circumstances of a startup in its earliest stage. They possess characteristics that are becoming harder to find, but are even more valuable in a virtual environment, such as their self-starter mentality, adaptability, and leadership skills. Eli effectively oversees multiple interns, serving as a vital bridge between management and our earliest recruits, and making a substantial impact on a tech startup's lifeblood—data. I have full confidence that Eli will continue to excel in future endeavors, applying their most important strength, their imagination, to data solutions.
