Jeff Blankenburg asked people in the community to honor Contribupendence Day and I have answered the call and have the following LinkedIn recommendations
I have impressed with Joel's work since the day I started working at NuSoft Solutions (now RCM Technologies). After spending 2 years working with him I find that he is very insightful in developing software as designing the solutions that make the clients happy and productive. If I was to start a new development group, I would begin by adding Joel to lead it. In addition to his work he is an avid community helper and speaks on topics that bring intelligence needed to other developers.
Matt has a wide array of skills that lead him to be a valuable member of all software development teams he works with. I had the pleasure of working with him and he is very inquisitive thinker and problem solver. I enjoyed his ideas and contributions to the project we worked on.
Jeff has an infectious personality that brings people around him. He using this and his keen technology knowledge and experience to share new ideas and help developers in his community to grow and make better solutions for everyone.
