Bio
Danielle Gorgerat
It was stellar working with Andy on the launch of our loyalty program, always professional and overall a great guy. He was always quick to respond and help in any way he could. His knowledge and experience was extremely helpful in assisting us with developing a program that worked for our Club. Hopefully our professional paths will cross again someday.

Andy was my project manager when we worked together at BigMachines and we worked on several large projects for Fortune-500 companies. Andy was a big help both to me and the customers, providing thoughtful insight and analysis of the project status, requirements, and budget. He was even more helpful when we needed to have difficult conversations with a customer: he provided a voice of reason and a calm demeanor that helped us resolve any issues quickly and amicably. I knew I could count on Andy to explain the situation to the entire team so that everyone would understood the issues at hand and we could arrive at an effective solution. I enjoyed working with Andy and I appreciated his skills and work ethic. I would not hesitate to work with him again.
