I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work closely with Jimmy for over a year. He is a true professional and the epitome of lifelong learning, constantly seeking new knowledge and skills. Jimmy’s friendly personality makes it easy for others to reach out to him and benefit from his experience.
As a senior developer and team lead, I felt incredibly lucky to have Jimmy as our Product Owner. His deep understanding of technical aspects and best practices, coupled with his proactive approach to addressing technical debt and prioritizing proper engineering, significantly reduced friction in our workflow.
Jimmy definitely stands out, and I would eagerly jump at the chance to collaborate with him again in the future.

I would not be the professional I am today without you, Jimmy. And I am convinced that many of us have been transformed by your exceptional coaching abilities.
You have a unique way of addressing real issues, seamlessly, at the right moment, with the right people. You are direct, but you excel at making feedback accepted. You are a true sower of ideas. And what can I say about your background, your knowledge, your insights, the authors you quote, and the connections you make…
You are a strong advocate for the power of mindset. Your emphasis on fostering a growth mindset encourages learning from feedback and persisting in the face of obstacles. This positive and resilient outlook is a cornerstone of your coaching philosophy and greatly contributes to the long-term success of those you work with.
Even today, as you know, I regularly consult with you. You remain a vital part of my thought process, continually pushing me to think deeper and explore new ideas. Your ability to challenge my assumptions and provide fresh perspectives is invaluable in my ongoing journey of growth and innovation.
I highly recommend you to anyone seeking a dedicated coach who takes thinking to the next level. Your expertise, passion, and unwavering support make you an exceptional coach. 🌟

I’ve had the pleasure of working one year with Jimmy. He is both a great coach and mentor with great listening skills. He truly cares for the people around him and is always there to help or lend an ear, even when overflowing with work.
As a coach, he excels at helping others come up with their own solutions instead of going the easy route of providing the answer, allowing people to grow and mature from the experience. I have learned a lot thanks to him, as well as acquired many tools to help me continue doing so.
