Justin Taylor
“He's easily the most active and helpful API tester we've ever had… he offers us guidance, prioritization and suggestions based on his years of experience creating Adobe integration. His Bolt-CEP project makes it easier for *all* developers to write Adobe integration; Justin even answers API-related questions on Adobe's forums! His efforts have been vital to Premiere Pro's UXP extensibility efforts.” – Bruce Bullis, Senior Engineering Manager at Adobe
