Bio
Jeremy Howcroft, PMP, B.Eng.
I worked with Thai for four years collaborating on BlackBerry in-store replica models. Thai was always very professional, clear, and concise in his communication to teams internally and to our international vendors.He also created high quality and organized project documentation.Thai was able to consider and appreciate all sides of the business ensuring projects were completed within scope, on time, and on budget. I enjoyed working with Thai and value his work.

I had worked closely with Thai for about four years when I was at Blackberry’s CMF since he worked as an intern at Blackberry. He was a complete go-getter, who would go that extra mile to give his best to any project undertaken. He worked as a pro and I was not surprised that he got his job offer when he went back to university. After he graduated, he worked at Blackberry’s Mechanical Engineering Group on accessories. He was not only a creative engineer but also an efficient project manager. Above all his professional qualities and achievements, the thing that I admired the most in Thai was that he is a good human being. I had found him extremely competent and enjoyable to work with.
