Bio
Christina Savinar
It's no secret that communication between Marketers and Engineers can be iffy at best. But not with Lewis. He was the lead on the technical portion of a massive email marketing migration with me, and I could not have picked a better partner in crime. Lewis so easily helped me understand the technical side of this project, helping it be a very successful. He is also one to always go above and beyond what's asked. He took the time to really learn how to use a new marketing automation tool, not just get it set up, and proposed several creative ideas that we implemented. Lewis is one of the best engineers I've ever had the pleasure of working with, and anyone would be lucky to have him on their team.

Lewis is a passionate and very skilled engineer, willing to put a lot of efforts into what he believes to be the best for the products he works on. During our time working together, Lewis produced a lot of quality work and his opinionated approach was beneficial to the team's growth. Working with Lewis was a real pleasure and teaching experience.
