Bio
Scott Waletzko
Esteban worked for me in 2011-2011 and exceeded all of my high expectations of him. He has expert technical knowledge of TFS, ALM (Application Lifecycle Management), and application development best practices. He is highly-independent, and very capable of managing his personal time and engagement level. Perhaps most importantly, his passion for his work is infectious and drives him to push to implement the right solutions, rather than the easy ones. I highly recommend Esteban, and look forward to the opportunity to work with him again in the future.
Annette Schnebel, CSM, CSPO
I have had the pleasure of working with Esteban creating and implementing a Silverlight based web application. His work ethic and commitment to excellence made the project a great success. His knowledge of not only development best practices, tools and implementation but also the Scrum process and proper project management is phenomenal and never fails to amaze me. He is a fantastic asset to any team and I look forward to the opportunity to work with him again.
