Buddy is a focused IT professional dedicated to the success of his initiatives. He has the ability to identify creative solutions to even the most complex problems and communicate those solutions in a way that is appropriate for the audience he's addressing. As a project manager, I would welcome the opportunity to work with Buddy again should the opportunity present itself.

Buddy is gifted at leading complicated technology projects. He has a knack for being able to dig down to uncover the problem that is trying to be solved or the goal at hand. He does an exceptional job at framing out goals, milestones, and accomplishments. He is able to motivate and communicate with a broad range of people and keep the project heading in the right direction. I always sought Buddy out to be on my team and he was always willing to jump i and help!
