“Michael was super helpful upgrading our app to a new design. He brought in great SwiftUI primitives and cleanly organized everything! Highly recommend”
“I know Upwork lets me write up to 5,000 characters, and I definitely could write that much about how good Michael is. I'll keep it short so you don't have to read my review and just go hire him. We've worked with Michael for years, and there has never been a time when he hasn't delivered great software. He's constantly learning about the newest and greatest technologies and applying them in safe and repeatable ways to get the best code to us quickly at a high quality. We will definitely hire Michael again in the near future, but I hope you, person reading this, will have a chance to work with him too.”

“You want a developer with a ton of experience, works great on your teams, and can build stuff fast? You need to hire Michael then. He's been working with us for years and we def wouldn't be where we are without his skills and mobile expertise. Most recently, Michael basically rebuilt our latest app in < 2 months which did a few things for us: 1. Make us look so professional. Quality developer + quality design feels very premium to our users across the country. 2. Much faster iteration. With the new code Michael wrote plugged into our design system, changes have been faster than ever so we can ship major features quicker building value for us and our users. 3. Helped to be able to plan out more releases than we have before. Being able to collab with our design team and backend teams so closely means we can plan better, easier, and actually more predictably.”
“Michael was fantastic. His communication and execution were excellent. We are rehiring him under a separate contract and look forward to continuing to work with him. Highly recommend.”

“It was a pleasure working with Michael. His development skills in Flutter are exceptional. He also has in-depth knowledge of the backend services (GCP, Firebase etc.) because of which it's very easy to explain him the vision of the product and the workings of its features. He cares about the product and goes above and beyond to deliver high quality work. He takes feedback very positively and is prompt in his communication. Would highly recommend Michael.”
“Michael possesses an exceptional work ethic and a high level of skill, combined with a remarkable degree of professionalism. It is rare to encounter someone as professional, skillful, and communicative as he is. We highly recommend Michael and his expertise to anyone seeking mobile development services and eagerly anticipate collaborating with him again in the future.”
“Michael is amazing. It's rare to find a younger developer who is so professional, knowledgable, a great communicator, receptive to feedback and just nice to be around. We interviewed 15 candidates before settling on him. His hourly rate is high but I assure you warranted — we did not have a single issue with Michael. Clean GitHub/Flutter work. I hope we get him back soon. Thank you for your hard work sir!”
“We've been working with Michael for a couple years and throughout the entire time, he's consistently kicked butt in his ability to match comps, hit deadlines, and go the extra mile to get our project to where it is now. We are definitely going to continue to work with Michael to build out our mobile app.”
“When I started my Upwork project, I met with four other individuals and companies… However, Michael's introduction letter, personality, and knowledge on the topics at hand set him apart from everyone else. During our initial discussions, Michael was very upfront about what I would need to provide… He took the time to understand my requirements thoroughly and provided valuable insights and recommendations. Additionally, Michael assured me of the security measures he would put in place, giving me complete peace of mind. …His exceptional skills and dedication transformed my project from a manual process into a fully automated system, saving me both time and money. Michael's code is clean, well-structured, and thoroughly tested, ensuring a seamless and bug-free experience. What sets Michael apart is his exceptional communication skills and considerate nature. He always made himself available for quick calls… Michael's pricing is fair and reasonable, especially considering the value he brings to the table. He stays on top of his tasks, meets deadlines, and is always open to making improvements… Overall, I cannot recommend Michael highly enough! …a professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated partner who will go above and beyond to deliver exceptional results time and time again!”

“Michael is extremely approachable and intelligent. As someone new to the 'start-up world,' it's refreshing to encounter leaders like Michael. He combines expertise, patience and a unique point of difference that is hard to find. We will work with him again.”
“I have had the pleasure of working with many freelancers, but my experience with Michael stands out as the smoothest and most impressive by far! He is not only a developer but a genuine creative force and problem solver. Michael single-handedly developed a Flutter app for both iOS and Android for my project. He transformed my simple Python web app into an incredibly smooth and engaging mobile experience that exceeded my expectations. Michael's independence and rigorous attention to detail have been key… He is exceptionally proactive, anticipating needs and addressing potential issues before they become problems. His ability to work autonomously ensured that the project progressed swiftly and efficiently, without the need for constant oversight. What I particularly appreciate about Michael is his openness to feedback and his patience for explaining technical details in an accessible way… His combination of trustworthiness, creativity, and technical expertise makes him an invaluable asset to any project.”
“Great communication, highly skilled, super personable. Fantastic all around!”
“Michael is very easy to collaborate with and has a very calm and genuine demeanor. The consultation was informative and energizing as I've never thought it was possible to get to next level (development). Excited to potentially partner with Michael on the MVP!!”
“Michael is great. Always responsive. Will be starting a larger project with him shortly!”
“Michael is top-notch talent… I've been a software dev manager for over 20 years and Michael is extremely efficient and easy to work with. Highly recommend! He built an iOS and Android app in Flutter for me and he was able to keep a very tight schedule on track.”
“Michael is GREAT!! He helped me through the idea phase of my project and I will be working with him to build the first version of my web platform. If you need someone to help talk through logic, front-end, and back-end architecture — Michael is your guy! Super helpful and feel we have a great starting point to test some assumptions and product/market fit!”
“Michael was excellent in his work, very responsible with turnaround times and importantly very easy to communicate and work with. Will certainly hire again!”
“Michael was available very quickly and understood my vision — I recommend you to work with…”
“Michael would be a great asset to any Flutter development project. He's an excellent communicator, friendly and skilled.”
“Michael is not only technical but also creative and helpful from a product perspective. Highly recommend for any technical project!”
“Michael is a top freelancer! He is both quick and thorough! He has an immense knowledge base yet knows his limitations and dives into research when needed. He went the extra mile for me, and I really appreciated it! You can't go wrong with Michael.”

“Michael was a great help in refactoring our Flutter app. He was responsive and easy to work with.”
“Michael is the best developer I have had the pleasure of working with. He built a great app for us and would recommend him to anyone.”
“Michael is a hard worker that cares about the end product and will work with you to accomplish your goals in Flutter. He is good with communication and will ask questions and provide suggestions along the way. I would highly recommend using Michael for your mobile development projects.”
“Michael is an exceptional developer. I've worked with 10 different freelance developers over the past 3 years, from all over the world, and Michael has certainly been one of the top 3. Notably, beyond being a great programmer, he's the full package: his written and verbal communication is exceptional, his work ethic is unmatched, his ability to follow instructions is admirable, and he knows when to involve other resources — whether that be designers, other developers, etc. I am grateful for his help on my project, and I hope I have the opportunity to work with him again in the future.”
“Michael was great at communicating and very efficient at completing all the Flutter + Swift programming work we hired him to do. Highly recommend +++”
“Michael is one of the best people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Doing fantastic work is just a part of the equation with him… He's also extremely communicative, sets realistic expectations, he's reliable, genuine, kind, and strategic. Working with Michael didn't feel like working with a freelancer — it felt like he was part of the full-time team. He really cares about the projects he works on and takes it upon himself to be proactive and really get to the bones of what makes a project important. I absolutely cannot recommend him enough as a partner, and hope that I get to start working with him again very, very soon!”
“Michael is hard working and cares about the quality of the final product. He is easy to work with and is flexible during the process. He knows Flutter well, but will also research any issues that come up to find a solution. He works well with given time frames and budgets. Michael will be a good asset and partner to any mobile project you need created.”
“Michael's awesome! His communication, punctuality, work ethic, skills, and creative mind are all top-notch. We got the most value from his expertise on Flutter, but he also helped with backend system design. I would love to restart working with him again in the future.”

“Michael is very organized and great at problem solving. His communication skills are excellent and he is very quick to respond with updates. He is now our go-to guy for future mobile app development projects.”
“Michael was clear and transparent in all communications. Excellent work. Highly recommended.”
“Michael is a skilled Flutter developer, who quickly understood the project and added valuable solutions. Looking forward to working with him in the future.”
“Couldn't recommend Michael highly enough. He was extremely knowledgeable and was able to easily help me work out some issues I was having with my code, as well as make recommendations on how I could effectively achieve certain features I wanted. He was very easy to work with and his explanations of the topics I had questions about were clear and concise. Another thing that stood out was how responsive he was. I never had to wait more than a couple of minutes after messaging him with a question to get a response. If you're in need of an iOS developer then you can't go wrong here.”

“Michael was very professional and dug into the assignment with both hands. I had a great time working with Michael and would definitely work with him again.”
“Michael is a developer of the highest quality and a pleasure to work with! He helped us design, build, and refine the first version of a mobile app for our mental wellness start-up. He approached the work both from a top-down and bottom-up perspective: first co-creating the plan with us by understanding what would create value for our customers from a business perspective, then executing all the small gritty details to transform the plan into a reality. One example of how Michael is proactive in his workstyle is his recommendation that we pivot to developing the app in the Flutter code base, which would allow us to deploy the app across iOS, Android, and desktop. It wasn't a language he was familiar with but he learned quickly and ultimately put us in a much stronger position as a result. We highly recommend Michael as a partner in your app development work.”

“Michael has deep expertise in iOS development and is an outstanding communicator. Highly recommended!”
“I've been working with Michael since January and we've built such a great team dynamic — he's communicative, hard-working, listens well and is truly passionate about coding… The only reason why I am ending this contract is because our startup is running out of money and we need to budget down in every way we can. I sincerely hope that as we make some profit, we will get Michael back on the team. All in all, Michael is not only a quality developer, but a quality human being overall. There's not too many developers like him out there, as he genuinely connects with you on a human basis as well. I remember how desperate I was in January to find a solid developer because there just weren't that many who fit my criteria out there. I kind of had to hunt him down — and it was well worth it. Thanks Michael, I will always remember you as my first iOS developer.”
“This is my second contract and project successfully completed with Michael. My first experience and review were exceptional, and round two was even more so. The more we work with Michael, the more impressed we are. He continues to go above and beyond to help make our vision a success. He keeps setting the bar higher. He is also a blast to work with. What more could one ask for?”
“Michael is one of the best iOS developers you can get on this platform hands down. When I was looking for developers in the US to help me launch my startup, I searched for a few days and came across nobody that 'had it all' until I stumbled across Michael's profile! I instantly reached out and the rest is history. He's communicative, honest, responsive and always willing to help out whenever there's a question. He also works extremely well in a team environment.”
“Michael is a rare and exceptional find. This is because he does not view his role as simply delivering against the specifics of the contract. Rather, he seeks to understand the overall goals of the company/project and goes above and beyond to support those goals via his work. And he does this with the highest level of accountability and integrity, with nothing falling through the cracks. This combination is every business owner's dream! There is simply nothing I would have liked to see him do differently. In fact, based on the success of our first project together, we are moving to a different contract to expand the scope of his work.”
“Michael has been absolutely great to work with. From start to finish everything that was requested got completed as requested to the best level! His communication was great and all milestones were knocked out on time! I would highly recommend Michael to anyone that is looking to develop an app.”
“Michael did an amazing job — he was helpful, patient, and punctual with his work. Helped and did what he was requested and more, went the extra mile with this project.”
“Michael worked quickly, gave good suggestions and most importantly worked with my budget and busy schedule. We will be working together to finish my project very soon! He's a good addition to a team.”
“This is my third time working with Michael and there is a reason I keep coming back and will continue to do so. Michael gets the job done. Once again he was easy to work with, kind, helpful, and flexible. He offered suggestions and alternatives to solutions that I hadn't considered but which greatly improved the app we were working on and saved both of us a bunch of time and energy. He is the right man for the job.”
“Michael did a great job again! This was my second time hiring him for a project and I'm sure that I will do it again! He is extremely talented with iOS development and a wonderful communicator.”
“Working with Michael might have been the most positive experience I've ever had with a contractor. He was responsive, communicative, and the end product was above and beyond my expectations. On top of all that, Michael completed the job in a very timely manner and had an outstanding attitude throughout. Don't think I could have been happier with how the job went.”
“This was my second time working with Michael and it went just as well as the first time… His work was excellent and timely. It is unheard of to work with developers and have as few issues as I did with Michael — they just come with the territory, there are always small bugs or changes that need to be amended, but not with Michael. I would send him my sketches and thoughts, he would give me a time estimate, he would complete it on time or early and it would be working perfectly. That combined with his fantastic attitude and cooperative spirit make hiring him a no brainer.”
“Does great work, on time, and is very attentive. Will hire again.”
“Michael is a fast learner, doesn't take shortcuts, and is always on time. Could not recommend enough, very sad to let him go. I've worked with him since day 1 as his first project on Upwork and have never had any complaints about work ethic, code quality, or capabilities. One of the best mobile developers on Upwork hands down — I would not recommend anyone but Michael.”
“Michael has been an absolute pleasure to work with… He is extremely talented with development and communication and doesn't 'scope creep' you at all. If you need something done on a timeline, this guy is the man. He knows how to work with complex problems and get deep in code, but he's also got the skills to make your app look gorgeous. If you're wondering if Michael is the guy for your iOS development job, I can assure you that he is!”
“All I can say is wow. What an outstanding and professional worker. He was here for our project every step of the way… One of the most important things for us was communication and boy was he communicative. If I had any questions or concerns, he was quick to respond. He was always respectful and trustworthy. His work is just as honest as his personality. He does his best to finish his work in the most timely manner so that it doesn't cost you more than it should. We were very worried about freelancers trying to milk us for money but Michael was the complete opposite. Any chance he got to save us some money, he took it. Don't let his age fool you, his quality of work is superb. Beyond what I expected from any freelancer on this platform. Not only is it of excellent quality but he completes it in excellent time… He is adaptive to any situation thrown at him and handles it wonderfully. I know Michael will go on to do great things because I know firsthand the talent he possesses.”
“I had worked with Michael previously and knew right away I was going to want to work with him specifically for future projects, here we are. Another job well done.”
“We have worked with Michael for a little over 2 months. His knowledge and expertise in development is unmatched. The best developer we have had the privilege of working with in our 3.5 years of development. His ability to adapt to any situation we threw at him is unrivaled — he is one of a kind and was worth every single dollar we invested into him. You will not find another developer on Upwork like Michael. He shows that he cares for the vision and direction that YOU as a business owner are headed. You may find other Upwork freelancers with more documented experience, but I guarantee Michael will do a better job and in a timely manner. During our journey with Michael we had a backend developer drop off the project due to unfortunate circumstance. We hired Michael as a frontend developer and, knowing our situation, he jumped on board, took the extra responsibility and knocked it out of the park. I never imagined the finished product would look so magnificent and beautiful. The functionality is out of this world with virtually zero bugs. I attribute the future success of our company to Michael's dedication, expertise, and execution. If you have any questions or concerns regarding Michael's experience or abilities, initiate a chat with him and ask for my contact information (Parti LLC).”
“Michael was a terrific developer to work with. His communication was excellent right from the beginning… I designed the User Interface and was quite particular about how it looked and how it flowed, but he was always receptive of my thoughts and willing to make changes when I suggested them. Michael also offered many new suggestions for the app that significantly improved its quality. This was my first time having an app created so Michael walked me through every process and explained everything as he went along so that I understood what was happening and why. This was extremely important to me and Michael did it without me even having to ask. He made me a priority and was available for phone calls throughout the entire process. Michael was professional, organized, punctual… He kept me updated regularly and organized a list at all times so I could see what he had completed, was currently working on, and what was up next. The end product looked great and ran perfectly. …He was exactly what I was looking for in a developer and I will definitely be going to him for future projects.”
