Bio
Meryl Logue
Todd managed a large team of technical support representatives, of which I was a part for 5 years. He matched his management style to the needs of each individual. He was very supportive of the needs of his teams; for example, when we took on new product support on new platforms, he lost no time in providing the platforms on which to test and learn. Under Todd, our team became the go-to team for trials of new initiatives, new tools, new training, etc. because we had become so agile and nimble and were so responsiive.

Call Centers are not typically known for excellence, so working with Todd is definitely a refreshing experience! His focus and committment to the 'Member Experience' is amazing to see. From extra trainings to always looking for ways to increase service, Todd has his finger on the pulse! What a great business partner- we love working with Todd & highly recommend that others do the same.
Brian Robinson
In a word, Todd is dynamic. I am regularly impressed with his knowledge and involvement in all areas of NWCU.
