I’ve worked with Onyewuchi for over 4 years, in various capacities, and I can speak to how much of a pleasure it has been for me. His attention to details is on point and he’s a great team player. I enjoy the privilege of having you as a colleague and I’m looking forward to continuing with the great work we’ve started. Anyone that gets to have Onyewuchi as a colleague or friend is blessed!
