Bio
Valentin Kravtchenko, MGP
John has proven himself as reliable during his internship and after - as he continued to work on his project and helped us onboard new team members. He worked on one of our most challenging R&D projects and was able to navigate its multiple unknowns by being methodical and by communicating through progress reports, meetings, and documentation. His colleagues also appreciated him for his promptness to help and reliability. Thanks for your hard work, John!

I had the privilege of spending part of my final year at university working with John at Grey-box as an intern to the Project Mesh project as research and development, and I can say, without any hesitation, that I fully recommend and endorse his technical ability and professionalism in a team environment. John's self-motivation when encountering tools or problems he had never seen before was truly inspiring. He was always one of the first one our team to dive into the documentation and would start building as soon as he could to develop a deep understanding of how all the parts worked together. He was always the person to talk to when I encountered a problem with something I was writing and was an excellent partner for big picture design discussions. When I was nervous about proposing large changes in direction as our understanding of the problem space changed, he was sure to learn my point of view and was quick to back me up in team meetings. I would love the opportunity to work with John on future projects and I believe he would be a strong fit on any team.
