"I was Jason’s personal supervisor and taught him throughout his three years at the university. The level of detail and quality of his assignments was always very high and he showed an impressive understanding of the technologies involved in web and mobile app design, scoring the highest marks in his final year. Jason’s manner and approach to work was always very professional and as an older mature student, he provided guidance and support to his peers. He is a very reliable individual who takes his work seriously and I would be in no doubt that whoever employs him would be extremely glad they did."
Nipan Maniar
Senior Lecturer & Course Leader – MSc Digital Media
"Jason produced some extremely solid work in his first year. His original music and sound showed great attention to detail, and was skilfully crafted. I have shown examples of Jason's work to other students on the unit in subsequent years to motivate and inspire."
"Having worked with Jason for 10 months, he has shown real commitment, honesty and drive so that our product was completed and ready in time. He took our idea and managed a team to make that vision become a reality. Jason showed great organisational skills and great trouble shooting techniques. Anyone would be in safe and reliable hands."
"I had the pleasure of teaching Jason during his studies on the BSc (Hons) Digital Media degree at the University of Portsmouth until his graduation. Jason was an exemplary student, and as a mature student, he supported and encouraged younger students both by his approach and work ethic."
Rod Jeffcote
Deputy Head of the School of Creative Technologies
"Jason achieved the top marks for my 3rd year communication design unit, demonstrating exponent skills in typography, layout design, motion graphics and sequential animation. As an experienced designer, Jason was able to bring a wealth of knowledge, be a major contributor in discursive critical reviews and consequently raised the bar across the unit, whilst also providing a significant amount of support and energy for his peers. Jason is a professional team player and I am in no doubt that he will be an enormous asset to any organisation."
Jules Pettitt
Course Leader – Entertainment Technologies / Creative Media
"Jason has been an exemplary student. His work ethic is second to none with fantastic attention to detail. His technical ability across the whole curriculum has been outstanding throughout the degree programme, and his design skills have developed to also be at an excellent level. He is one of the best graduates we have produced. Jason also excels in teamwork both providing support and encouragement but also in leadership and management."
"Jason impressed me throughout his degree by his intelligent, clear sighted and careful approach to his studies. This was no more evident than in his final year where his group was entrusted with a very challenging mobile development project for Portsmouth Festivities and, led by Jason, negotiated a series of challenging situations to deliver an outstanding application. Jason was in charge of both the project management and the customer communication and did an exemplary job."
