Thoughts

Corwin

Corwin is a true estimator. I've met few people more willing to make calculations and give confident estimates in conversation.

He understands the necessity of accepting and accounting for risk.

He is as critical of overly-heavy estimates as light estimates. He specifically prefers accurate line item costs with a single contingency over inflated individual budgets.
