Bio
Egidijus Ligeika
I have worked with Andrew on many projects, and every time we have worked together I have learned something. I am taken aback, again and again, at how excited Andrew is about working with new technologies (especially databases and data processing tools), and how passionate Andrew is about secure and responsible data management practices. Andrew is driven and reliable. Most importantly, Andrew is always learning the new interesting technology. Andrew will be a valuable member of any technical team!

Andy is one of a kind. His capacity to learn and the passion he shows in his commitments are absolutely exceptional. It was a pleasure and privilege to have it in my team and no matter if on the extra mile or not he showed a great professional attitude which makes him susceptible for a great future. With knowledge and skills covering vast areas of technology in particular and digital in general he has the capacity and flexibility to change and commit on new grounds at a moment's notice and this shows his great creative power. He's future is bright and he'll take that brightness with him in every team or organization. I wholeheartedly recommend him.
