It has been my pleasure working with Bernie during the time I was employed at Citi. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and passionate in his craft, which is why I look up to him as a mentor and as a close friend. Bernie can always find the best approach to a given task even if there is no roadmap paved, which is one of the many reasons why he will always be an asset to any company.
