World Health Organization

[Shawn] understood exactly what was needed and made very thoughtfull and useful suggestions for the site’s usability. The evaluation of the site received excellent feedback from its users. In his work, Dr Koppenhoefer has proved to be a reliable, creative, enthusiastic and well organized colleague. I highly recommend him for his programming skills, as well as system administration and teaching capacities.
