Bio
Julie Gartner
I worked with Joel on a very large scale website development project. He was a critical member of the team. Joel has excellent organizational, technical and creative skills. He is a pleasure to work with and always has a smile on his face for everyone. Joel is a solid performer and has a great deal to offer.
Joseph Welch
Joel and I worked together for more than 8 years on various projects, from different departments and therefore perspectives. And what I saw time and again was his acute ability to gather various opinions and thoughts in a crowded meeting, then recommend and communicate the most effective path forward. If that weren't enough, he would then play a lead role in executing the group's vision with his web development abilities and animation artistry. That blend of technical talent with a thoughtful approach is rare. Simply put, Joel is a major contributor on every project he touches and is a pleasure to be around.
