Luke is a fantastic technician. He sets himself apart from his peers with his knowledge, insight and ability to relate well to others. He is a thought leader among his peers and partners. He considers solutions to problems that others haven't thought of. He has a vision to how things could be and can make plans on how to achieve those goals. I always enjoyed my time with Luke and still consider him not only a friend, but a resource. Luke would be a wonderful addition to anyone's team!

Luke is an outstanding Facilities Technician with a great eye for detail. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with him and, even though he is no longer a direct report, I still call on him to help me with issues. Luke is tech savvy and always looking for a better way to accomplish a task. He is the "go to" person for many special projects and unusual opportunities. He has a wealth of knowledge and someone you want on your team!
