I had the distinct pleasure of working with Blake during his four years with ThermoFisher Scientific in the cleanroom industry. He is a self-motivated, disciplined and dependable person. He was one of my top students for gaining applicable cleanroom knowledge in order to best service his customers in this market. He is team oriented and understands that at times various resources must be pulled together in order to obtain his customer's objective. Blake is a stellar addition to any corporation.
