        In the 2.5+ years I’ve worked with Yinka, I’ve come to admire his persistence to deliver results despite obstacles. His can do attitude is refreshing, as there is no challenge that Yinka is not willing to tackle. He will consistently go the extra mile to make sure his goals are accomplished.
