Working with Taras is a pure pleasure. He has no difficulties to work with any level of customers guiding them towards the resolution they want and understanding the technicality behind the implementations. From a developer's perspective - I never had any bottlenecks to explaining what I need and once I did - great design and assets are ready in no time. High attention to details and people's time, goal oriented plus positive attitude -> that's your perfect man right there :)

It was great opportunity for me to work with Taras.He was my lead designer when I was junior designer in SoftServe. He is self motivated, strong qualified mentor, he knows how to help someone to create nice solution with strong understanding of business issues. He grew many qualified designers in different areas. I reccomend Taras as a mentor because he is the best lead that I've ever seen.
