Kareem was a pleasure to work with. He made sure to ask many questions and be attentive to the needs and wants of the client's end result. He was polite and asked for constructive feedback constantly so that he can grow and learn from his experience. Kareem made sure his end product/design fit the expectations and desire of what was requested. Glad to have had Kareem on the team!
