“Laud was awesome to work with at Moz. As a marketer, I appreciated his communication style the most as well as his speediness. My job was to request new landing pages and updates to our marketing pages… I really appreciated that. I'd recommend Laud for any marketer or designer looking for a front end developer, and to any dev team who can work well with marketers. He also has a great can-do attitude, adorable twins, and a super solid goal to help his community.”
