Recommendations

We placed Phillip at Idaho Power as a Web Designer in 2008. He was placed on a 6 month web-site redesign project but it was extended based on his excellent attitude and technical skills. Phillip has great knowledge and experience working with Flash, CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. I would not hesitate in working with Phillip again.

-Amanda Moore, Technical Recruiter, Tek Systems.

Phillip is a dedicated, detail oriented, hard working individual who was a pleasure to work with. Phillip works extremely well with others and was always requested by colleagues and managers for special projects or team assignments. Phillip thrives in a fast paced environment and is willing to put in the extra hours to make each project a success. I would love to work with Phillip again some day.
