“For the past 8 years, I have had the pleasure of working with Ben on the development and evolution of my website, ASLdeafined.com. When I think about Ben and what he exemplifies as an outstanding professional, these traits would include hard working, being timely and meeting deadlines, forward thinker, and extremely detailed focused. It has been such a pleasure to work with such an outstanding developer and professional for the last 8 years and counting. I look forward to working with Ben on new and exciting features of my website. As a developer, Ben has made such a great impact on thousands of people because of the work he does. And if it weren’t for Ben, ASLdeafined would not be the educational tool that it is today to help people learn American Sign Language. It is without reservation that I write this testimonial for such an outstanding developer! Thank you Ben for all of your hard work and class.”

“It is very hard to find a developer who knows your platform, performs the work, and will be a partner with you for your website. Many developers farm out their work, causing miscommunication, wasting time, and making it difficult to trouble-shoot. It’s such a relief to be able to form a relationship with a developer who listens and is responsive and honest.”
