Cynthia C.

During the 8 years I worked with Dennis at 1st Financial Bank USA, he showed tremendous growth as a project manager, quickly established himself as a natural leader. He was instrumental to the successful planning, execution and management of several strategic projects. He leads projects and programs with confidence, easily gains the trust and respect of team members and works to put the team in the best position to succeed. Dennis communicates well with stakeholders at all levels of the organization, and ensures that expectations are aligned and needs are met. He is very knowledgeable about project management methodologies and tools, and was a key participant in the evaluation and implementation of Agile methods and practices within the organization. Dennis is a strong project and program manager, he would also provide great leadership in a more formal team management role. I am happy to give Dennis my full recommendation.

Kelly Brockhouse, MBA

Dennis is loyal, intelligent, and easy going. He leads teams with respect and makes sure the job is getting done.
