Travis Gould (Director of Product Management, Freedom Financial Network)

Over the past year plus I have had the privilege of working with Gabriel as a developer on the Scrum team which I lead as the Product Owner. Between my Six Sigma work and my time in Product Management (20+ years combined), I have worked with a great number of developers, and Gabriel is amongst the very best I have worked with in terms of balancing back-end efficiency with elegant front-end user solutions. His ability to create high-quality UI functionality in a legacy system with a great number of pre-existing limitations has been superb. In addition to the technical abilities Gabriel brought to the team, his personality, humor, and optimism were a bright spot in every day that I interacted with Gabriel. He has been an incredible asset to our team and I (along with the rest of the team) will miss him and wish him well in the next journey. Any team that is fortunate enough to have Gabriel with them is a lucky team indeed.

Jose Luis Gonzalez Ochoa (Delivery Services Lead, Unosquare)

Gabriel has shown a great attitude during the time he's worked with us. His contributions to the project have been very valuable and he has received recognition both internally and by the clients he's worked with. Gabriel is very professional and possesses great development skills.
