        Aabid knows mobile apps and how to manage and deliver quality apps to the market in a timely manner.  He's energetic and understands what is needed for a company to stay attractive to existing as well as future team members.  I'm sure he will be a great asset to any team he is a part of.

        I had the privilege of working with Aabid on a high profile and demanding project. The requirements were complex and the timeline was tight. It was nice to know Aabid was driving the project. He did an excellent job of setting expectations, getting to the necessary details, and adhering to the timelines. 

We succeeded. Project was completed on time.  We did it as a well run team, at one point numbering in double digits. Aabid is keen on keeping production moving, shielding and deciphering changes in requirements or project needs from the development flow so that that the team could quickly focus on implementation changes or updates once established.

Aabid has a great sense of humor. If you get the chance to work with him, do it, highly recommended.
