John gave me a new appreciation for the role of controller. While he was on board everything seemed to be on auto pilot. Now that John has moved on I learned quickly just how much he added to the postion. Rick Jones CEO PBM Graphics, Inc.

I wholeheartedly support and endorse John Garrett. I had the pleasure of working with John for many years at Enterprise Rent-A-Car and found him to be thoughtful, engaging and diligent. John has a second-to-none work ethic and offered deep and insightful analysis on my business on a regular basis. I would happily work with John again in the future!
