Bio
Louis Camassa
During Brian’s tenure at TechXpress I was continually impressed with his work ethic, dedication to detail, and creative solutions to programming challenges. Brian quickly learned our proprietary ecommerce framework and was responsible for developing sites from prototype to live production. He ultimately developed dozens of web projects, and helped support over 160 live production websites. Brian become so familiar with our system, he single handedly developed our core documentation, which is still in use to train new employees. Brian also spearheaded a unique project to verify and synchronize content databases, which has streamlined our production time. He was continually focused on discovering optimal solutions, and was never deterred by a complex challenge. It was a pleasure working with him and implementing new, cutting-edge technologies. His diversity, eagerness to learn new technologies and communication skills made him an asset at TechXpress. If you are looking for a reliable, intelligent and creative individual, give Brian a chance, and I know that he will quickly become an asset for you as he was for us. My team and I give our highest recommendation!

I spent six weeks as a qualified rock climbing and ropes course instructor at the best scout camp on the Oregon coast (sorry, Merriweather, but it's true), earning multiple rewards and accolades for instruction, oversight, assistance, and mentoring of scouts and their troops. Oh--and mastery of Ye Olde Scout Camp skits and songs, needless to say!
