I had the pleasure to work closely with Brad in my Global Operations Manager role United Language Group. Brad has demonstrated to possess strong project management skills, leadership potential and business acumen. His ability to maintain calm under pressure, his positive attitude and problem-solving personality has made him quickly become the "go-to" person for the other members of the team.

Brad is a dynamic and detailed oriented Project Coordinator. I had the pleasure of working with Brad at LUZ Inc. I hired him for a temporary Intern position where he excelled at. He learned quickly and went beyond every task, ensuring high quality deliverables and providing feedback for improvement on processes. His dedication and potential earned him a permanent position at the company as an Associate Project Coordinator. Brad is always willing to help and provide support on other areas other than project management, like quality management and IT. Brad is a great asset to any company and I can recommend him for any endeavor he chooses to pursue.
