It's rare to come across someone as talented as Brandon. I had the privilege of working along side Brandon on a small startup creating smart home systems. Brandon's work was simply amazing, he was so devoted to building a perfect system that he was able to come up with these amazing programs written in java, c++, sql, thousands upon thousands of lines and solution after solution, Brandon must be half machine. Above his exceptional ability to program working with him is a pleasure. Always so positive about everything, can lighten up a room in a second, and his constant sharing of exciting new technology is a huge motivation to get involved. I would rely on Brandon and I would expect him to successful in every situation. Brandon Marshall has my highest recommendation.
Jason Zanghi - Support Specialist and Web Programmer, City of Sacramento (Local Government)
Brandon started working for the City of Sacramento as an intern while in college and was an excellent addition to our team. Beyond basic experience working with computers, he brought a passion for technology that is rarely seen, and before long it was easy to tell that he wasn't just another barebones tech. Brandon constantly tried to elevate his knowledge in both computing and programming, and loved to dive in and actually make technology a large part of his life. I saw him invest himself into new technology that will be commonplace in the future, and the diversity of his knowledge that came from that really shined. We have had many interns and new hires over the years, and few were cut out for the hugely diverse demands our techs have to meet, Brandon was one that I would gladly welcome back.

Brandon was a part of our team previously and within the short amount of time with us, seen a lot of growth both technical and personal. Was a great addition to our team. It has been a pleasure working with Brandon from the very beginning, and I would jump at the chance to do it again.
