Bio
Val G.
Schalk's depth of knowledge, empathy, and clarity of communication impress me. He has gone above and beyond to help my team with code reviews, accessibility advice, and even implementation work, above and beyond his official duties (and with the approval of his manager). He regularly checks in with folks going through tough times to see what he can do, even just to listen. This combination of skill, kindness, and clear vision are rare and valuable. I enjoyed working with him, and would be happy to work with him again. I recommend him highly.
