Andrew is awesome. I was looking for an experienced architect to help guide my prototype app into a production product. He quickly understand the use case and existing code-base and was great at explaining what could change and it's benefit. Looking forward to continue to work with him in the coming months as I deliver on 1.0 and beyond. Thanks Andrew!

Thanks a lot for the great help to find a best way to implement complicated native queries for Spring boot application :)
Also, it was very good to know why these are several JPA implementations to represent the same database relationship :)
