Feedback Received for Work I've Done
"I just finished going through all the curated content you prepared. I am blown away, your selection is unbelievable. I am so happy with the direction you are taking this in!"
-Sara W (Squag)
"Sitting beside Adam for less than 2 hours - with him demonstrating my options live - I was able to make the technology-related decisions that I've been putting off for 3 months. I left our appointment feeling happy that with his guidance I chose the technology that best aligned with my business' goals."
-Liz Rice
"Adam completed a contract with the City of Toronto to support training and rollout of an upgraded Digital Asset Management platform to City staff. After attending the first training session to observe and get familiar with the material, he took the lead for the second session and did a great job of conveying the content, demonstrating the software, maintaining a good pace, and handling questions and clarifications. Adam was able to run all future sessions independently, including booking the rooms and necessary equipment, managing attendance, and providing post-training support for attendees. We received multiple compliments about Adam both as a presenter and for his user support. He ultimately provided excellent training to 150 city staff over a dozen sessions."
-Jonathan S, Project Lead (City of Toronto)
"I feel a lot of thoughtful courage in your message. And I'm impressed that you're going outside traditional skill categories to tell us specifically what you like to do and are good at, and helping us imagine how we might need those skills"
-Barbara Brook (Brook Coaching)
"I think the guide is great! The strongest aspect is the examples you give in each section. Those examples are gold and they really help the reader understand what you’re talking about. I can tell you carefully thought through the examples you included. I also like the different styles of writing you curated from lists, to articles, to cartoons etc… it helped to have the different styles as it kept my attention and kept things fresh. Overall, from someone who doesn’t know you, I think the content is very clear."
-Jenn R
"Wow, this data tracking sheet is incredibly thorough. Thanks for building this for us! I hope the team finds it helpful to see the information organized in this way!"
-Lauren C (Fluent in 3 Months)
"I'm astonished at this exhaustive list of references and yet I'm confident I can use this as the basis of my learning. Many thanks and please tell Adam I appreciate his help and enjoyed his thoughtful and focused remarks. I can imagine this guide helping others like me, who are willing to learn but also are overwhelmed by the numerous online resources."
-Tigesti H
"I forwarded your guide to one of our Board members who has a background in IT and coding. He was very impressed with the readability and comprehensiveness of it, and felt it is a great tool for individuals interested in getting an introduction into the world of coding."
-Alexandra (Aspergers Society of Ontario)
“Right now I mostly feel encouraged to try something new. I’m mildly nervous that I’ll give up before I really start. But I seriously think there isn’t anyone better to learn with. You are very encouraging. If I struggle with something I don’t think i’d feel as self-conscious about it because you understand how different people have different learning styles and learning curves.”
-Amanda
“You put together events and safe spaces for people to forget their insecurities and troubles to just be, to learn, and to meet new people, and that’s totally rad”
-Petra

“Hey I just gotta say that you’re quickly becoming one of my favourite people to read [on facebook], I get tired of negative status updates and crappy pics of people being stupid that actually reading someone who posts insightful stuff is SO refreshing. Love it!”
