Bio
Vlad Alexandru Nitoiu
I met Stefan back when I was working as a Quality Assurance Tester within the Certification Team of EA Games Working with him was an absolute pleasure every day, no matter the situation. He played hard, worked harder and always got the job done. He has a strong work ethic, great communication skills and he rapidly rose through the ranks within the team, getting involved in more and more projects. His Industry Knowledge and determination make him a force to be reckoned with and his dedication to whatever he sets his mind to makes him an asset worth looking after. He is continuously developing himself to be the best he can be As both a former colleague and friend I have absolutely no doubt that he will excel in any position he might pursue.

I met Stefan back when I was still studying at RAU, he was a couple of years younger than me, promising individual. We developed an alliance which lasted throughout college till the actual present. Electronic Arts was also a place where we interacted with one another, his out of the box thinking methods were pushing the team to aspire for more. It was a pleasure working and studying alongside Stefan. If you want a solid individual that thinks outside of the box, he’s the person you need.
