Bio
Lynn L. Borkon
Tommy Zamberlan is extremely proficient in project management and in communications. I. worked with Tommy as a senior writer / editor on the high-profile Secretary of Defense’s 45-day DoD Independent Review of the mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas. He earned respect and a broad range of assignments because he consistently delivered first-rate work that impressed military and civilian experts alike, some of whom were flown in from across the globe. Tommy has big-picture vision and the ability to craft complex products. In addition, Tommy is a knowledgeable and meticulous manager of project timelines, deliverables, and quality control. He consistently goes the extra mile and inspires others to do the same. He is also fun to work with – even in the midst of changing requirements, and significant pressure. Tommy’s expertise was sought by the executive management team and he delivered a variety of products, always on time and of the highest quality. Tommy is also eager to help others on technical matters of which he is a master. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Tommy again. He is talented and dedicated to exceptional results.

My experience with having Tommy Zamerlan as a colleague was formative for me in providing an opportunity to observe both capable handling of a project workload in addition to professional comportment. Talent and professionalism don’t necessarily coincide to a significant degree, but Tommy represents a good mix in this regard. I have no doubt that this same quality carries over within the Bryant Zamberlan Group and I would not hesitate to recommend their services….
