Bio
Eric Van Berg
Kienan is a very talented and through developer. For his first project he was given an opportunity to make high visibility change. He was respectful of the levels of management, but un-phased when meeting with high level members of the organization. On another project in a few months he straightened out spaghetti code that far more senior developers had worked on for years. This made developing new features a breeze and made writing tests far more straightforward. Thank you Kienan!
