Met Hightouch through Steemit and got to work with him for years. If we have to talk about work, then Hightouch did too much – with little to no recognition... and gave his all to Steem, to the point of breaking his health, which wasn't easy to witness sometimes. I gave up on Steem... he didn't. Yet the community doesn't respect his work – for example, most Steemit users don't even know Steemscan is his work.

As for personality... oh boy, he is stubborn. The problem is – he was never a shark. Always standing tall on his principles and never compromising on that, which is why he could never win the Steem political games... and could never, at the same time, scam the users. He is upright, ethical, and gave us that sense of responsibility. We were led by a heartful leader, CTO (CEO), teammate – and basically one of my closest friends today. I'm glad he's quitting that toxic ecosystem, and sad for Steem at the same time. And if you know Hightouch... you know that he never lies and always speaks his mind (which is also a problem XD).

His work made Steem history: Fundition, Steemscan, Drugwars, Steemlogin, Ongame, and so on. Also, he developed many Dapps that didn't get the chance to be presented...but I got lucky to witness a few..and man that could've changed the whole Steem Blockchain use cases.
