I've had the pleasure of working with Prasanth on three different projects over the last five years...He is extremely creative, attentive to detail, dedicated to the task at hand, and above all, a true joy to work with in every capacity.

His eye for aesthetics, and his efforts thus far to bring our two products to light, puddleJump and emOcean, have been simply amazing.

Prasanth was super quick, skilled, and on point with my logo concept! I would highly recommend his services!
