Brad is one of a kind... the kind that is a consistent and steady IT leader that doesn't back away from challenges. I've had the pleasure of working with Brad over the past decade as he grew his career and skill set from IT support to Director of Operations in a top 20 accounting firm. His insights in recruiting and talent acquisition always provided perspective that were invaluable to the process.
