Bio
Brad Patterson, CAE
I worked with Keith for six years. I always got along with Keith and he was very good at what he did. Whether it was website development or just taking care of the behind the curtains stuff, Keith was always very responsive to my needs and he was responsive to the needs of our members. Working with volunteers is an art. Being responsive to the volunteer members is very important. Keith was always available and responsive to our members. He also was a good teacher, helping me learn how to do certain things myself. I have found that to be very important.
Heather DelaCruz
I have worked with Keith for over six years. He has been extremely helpful to me in his role as a Systems Analyst. He is always quick to help out, whether in terms of tracking down issues, under time pressure, debugging products, or consulting with designs for new components. He has provided the knowledge and capabilities that let us move forward and give our members what they want and need. Working on legacy applications and designing new applications altogether, I know that he'll bring up any new technologies or capabilities that I can use to make my own tasks better where appropriate.
