I took two of his courses and really liked him as a professor, especially when he incorporated real-world industry examples into his teaching. He was also very supportive, always replying to my emails and addressing my questions effectively.

very supportive and attentive in checking in with individuals and groups, remembers details and seems to genuinely care about his students and their success, my only small criticizm is he essentially just reads every lecture slide word for word and doesnt often go in depth and explain concepts or diagrams, however the course I was in was quite an easy one that seems to not require that much indepth knowledge so I cant speak for more advanced topic. overall, would recommend.
