Bio
Algimantas Krasauskas
Max is a dedicated and engaging individual, with excellent communication skills and personal attributes that make him an excellent person to work with. He is happy to learn an unfamiliar technology and discuss style best practises and design guidelines.
Stewart Gregory
Max is amazing... seriously. He came to us as a freelance developer for a three-week project, and was so good that we hung onto him for over a year. Quick to ingratiate himself with both the team some very senior stakeholders, Max commanded a huge amount of respect from all levels of the business, and made a huge impact in his time here. He is talented, honest, and an absolute pleasure to work with - whether it was hitting horrible deadlines, or simply providing a fresh perspective on how we could do things. His contribution to our digital efforts is still very much alive now... to the point where we still look over our shoulders occasionally and think "what would Max have done here?" He was a great asset to us and I recommend him wholeheartedly.
