References

"Sherwin has been somewhat of the Nestor of the team during our time together in Tinkerbox. Always friendly and approachable, he quickly becomes a favourite among juniors and interns. He possesses a very broad knowledge of Rails and the related ecosystem, and always has something new to contribute to technical discussions."

Ted Johansson Technical Lead / TechLadies Coach

"Always willing to go above and beyond to explain complicated programming concepts, Sherwin is patient and nurturing towards beginners. Even though he may appear to be reserved initially, he is actually super approachable and is always ready with a listening ear. So whether you’re a client, fellow developer or mentee, Sherwin would definitely be a pleasure to work with!"
