Bio
Mark Purkis
I'm currently on a project with Gbola where he is a tester on the project. I've been very impressed with his skills. He's extremely easy to communicate with, he understands complicated concepts, and is a genuinely good person to work with. My only regret is that I won't get to work with him for longer than I have.

I worked with Gbola extensively during my time in Utmost, and always found him to be be highly efficient and trustworthy, with great attention to detail. I would have no hesitation recommending him to a perspective employer
