Bio
Yalena Coleman
Ben has been a developer in my team at DVT for almost 2 years, and during that time he has proved to be an excellent team member. I know I can always rely on him to provide accurate estimates and stick to them, which makes my job as project manager much smoother especially in an Agile/Scrum environment. He has shown initiative in solving problems and has also very quickly picked up on legacy systems that he has not written. On a recent project, he put in many hours overtime to meet the tight client deadline, and for this was given a staff award. I would recommend Ben to join any software development team.
