In general, I deal with far too many leads to have prior clients and coworkers constantly contacted by them. If you are willing to act as a reference for a period of a year after satisfactory project completion receiving my prospective clients calls and are paying a market wage for my skill and experience level¹:

Otherwise, the following policy applies:

  • You are welcome to use the Word doc above or do any other independent checking.
  • I find the whole references thing unenlightened:
