I can’t say enough good things about Ricardo! He has been my mentor and a friend. He has always been honest and worked hard to help me grow and succeed as an Engineer. He has always gone above and beyond and now that I’m moving on to my next step in my career, I can say I feel truly blessed to have worked for him and to know him.

Ricardo is one of the hardest working motivated people I have seen, and it's contagious! Not only does he have his own personal goals, but he is also trying to better the tech community by really working striving to lift those in the community up around him to land their dream jobs. My first conversation with him was over a mentorship meeting which blew me away because he was so raw and authentic, he really helped me get on track to improving my future. He gave me lots of advice on what I should do in order to better myself and my skills. He's always there for me and others who need help, I could not be more grateful for his assistance! All in all, Ricardo is an awesome developer and just a great guy, and his skills are second to none. Keep up the good work mate!!!

I found Ricardo by accident. I am really happy that he is my mentor, he genuinely cares about his students. He really wants every student to do well and be successful. He will be there for you pretty much 24/7 and he will check on you everyday to see how you are doing. If you want a mentor who truly, truly cares, Ricardo is your guy. He won’t let you down, I promise!!
