    Chris provided my company with the highest service of all of my contract work through Guru. He went the extra mile... and then some. He was highly proactive, made many effective recommendations, and delivered frequent updates on his progress. He really dove into the project and not only completed it, but also looked at it from multiple perspectives (i.e. my company -- brand image, customers, etc.) and kept the "big picture" in mind. I highly, highly recommend using Chris on your projects.
