We had an unrealistically tight timeline, and Dr. Yel jumped in without hesitation — not only met the deadline, but delivered a little earlier than we anticipated. He took the time to understand the situation behind the data and the implications of every insight. We know who to go to for future work like this.

Deadline-critical analysis
I recruited Nedim for his analytical skills and research abilities. He brought very strong quantitative research skills and the interpersonal ability to work effectively with a wide range of people from diverse backgrounds. He excelled at ferreting out and interpreting information from multiple sources. My highest recommendation.
