Sigei is a fantastic software engineer, and his detail-oriented approach made him a pleasure to work with. We pair-programmed extensively together while enrolled in a software development program, and during that time his work ethic blew me away. Sigei views writing clean, accessible code as a calling, and he's excellent at identifying areas where we can improve UI. He's also super friendly; by the time our project was done, I felt we'd known each other for years. I can't recommend him enough!

Kiprono is one of the most hard-working students I have met in Microverse. I really enjoyed being his mentor. He is respectful, open-minded, and committed. I liked his proactivity since he always came prepared to our meetings and tried to take as much as possible from them. He took my suggestion seriously and tried to improve on his mistakes each week. I find him usually looking for a way to share his knowledge with classmates and help them with their blockers. He has good English communication skills that will allow him to integrate into any English-speaking company. Highly recommended!
