Bio
David Cone, MBA, PMC, PMP®
I had the pleasure of working with Aaron during my tenure as Business Analyst at SunGard. Aaron is an excellent Program Manager. He has amazing domain expertise, in this case financial advisor and investment management software. He is an outstanding leader, effectively leading multiple cross-functional teams. His communication skills are exceptional and he exercises independent and fair consensus-building skills. It is a pleasure to recommend Aaron.
Trina White, PHR, SHRM-CP (she/her/hers)
When I learned I was to work with a new Service Delivery Manager at ADP, I was worried about continuity, quality of work, and other typical knee-jerk reactions. However, from the moment Aaron and I began to work together, it became clear that in him, I not only had a strong partner, but a partner who could work both with and for me to ensure successful outcomes. His ability to escalate issues as appropriate and deep-dive in a troubleshooting capacity were invaluable to me as the client. Additionally, the quality of service and offering improved as a result of this relationship. And despite managing other clients, Aaron managed to ensure I never felt neglected - he was always accessible. Without reservation and with enthusiasm, I highly recommend Aaron. He is an excellent partner, incredibly knowledgeable in his arena and helps you deliver your end-goals. I welcome the opportunity to work with him in the future.
