He strives to provide each and every nonprofit he works with a best-fitted tech solution. In addition, his experience and love for volunteering make him an expert in volunteer recruitment, retention, and overall volunteer management.

I have had the pleasure of working with Carl for over 4 years now. Carl is an effective communicator with an attention to detail and an attitude that shows me he takes pride in his efforts. Carl contributes to a positive team culture and is a natural at bringing a smile to your face! I also credit Carl as being both a friend and mentor to me in sharing his experiences and insights that have contributed to my personal career development. His energy can be infectious and he is reliable when we work together on various projects.
