Bio
Larry Hopkins
Brian is a detailed manager who is very valuable to any team. He produces quality work, and doesnt require micro management / hand holding. Very sharp analytical brain and good delivery. He is excellent at putting together Marketing plans that helps an organization grow new business.
Jeff Pills
I first met Brian at Dex in Intial Sales Training As his trainer, it was clear that he was exactly what our business was looking for: a focused, personable, professional who not only had a strong work ethic, but a sense of where he wanted to go. As his career progressed, he became a leader and the "go to guy" for many in our sales organization. No surprise. Brain has business sense, a track record of success and the ability to build positive relationships. I'd gladly welcome the chance to work with Brian again, anytime!
