Bio
Marc M. Pierrat
Derek and I worked together on the Bright Horizons Intranet, among other projects. I couldn't have asked for a better partner. If I needed help or find some answers, Derek was always there to lend support and move the program forward. He knew how to leverage technology, build consensus, and manage people. Derek is biased towards progress and action - "get it done" should be his motto, and it's a good one for project management.
