Konrad is a bright and focused individual that is able to work independently to deliver important assignments. While working with us, he researched, chose and deployed software tools to deliver aspects of enterprise customer projects where we needed to ensure that our solution remains compliant with stringent regulatory requirements. Konrad also helped our team pivot to more modern tooling for systems monitoring. These projects helped our team by reducing costs and improving team efficiency.

Janet Melo-Thaiss, PhD

Active engagement and thoughtful questions are at the heart of success for anyone working on a team. As Konrad's instructor I could see that he had already mastered these skills before coming into my class. He is an excellent communicator both orally as well as in written work, offering key skills that are increasingly rare in the market today. Between these skills and his hard working ethic, I have no hesitation in saying that any company would be fortunate to have Konrad join their team.
