I worked with Radley for about five years in the agency world. My business partner and I hired Radley when he was a brand-new developer; inexperienced, but bright, eager, and motivated. In a very short amount of time, Radley grew into a brilliant developer and became our agency’s lead developer. He and I worked in-tandem on dozens of websites over the years. He has qualities that are vital to successful programming. Firstly, he takes great personal pride in his work. His personal expectations of quality exceed that of those around him, and that makes his work superb. Radley is also a creative problem solver. We often joked that “if a client can dream it, Radley can build it”. And finally, Radley’s greatest luxury is his ability to articulate complex concepts both in “programmer-speak”, and layman’s terms. I’ve had Radley write summaries for clients, where his layman’s term verbiage is so eloquent that I just copy and paste it to my client. For those of you familiar with web developers, you know this is extremely rare. He’s the ultimate 5-tool player, and you should certainly hire him.
