Bio
Tony Chinh
Chad is a professional and determined individual who is always outgoing and an outside the box thinker. Given a task he will bear down and get things done in an intense time crunch scenario. At times Chad was the savior of our group functions and projects.
Dusty Evanoff
Over the last six months, I've spent hundreds of hours in a (virtual) classroom with Chad and I was continually impressed by his work ethic and his ability to absorb new material. He not only completed the assignments on-time and learned the course material, but it was often obvious he'd gone beyond what was taught doing his own research and expanding on what we did in class. That's no small task, as in-class lecture and hands-on activities account for about 10 hrs/wk and the assignments typically demand at least 10-20 hrs outside of class. If I'm responsible for hiring for a security role, I look for someone who's technically capable, curious, passionate, and has demonstrated the ability to continually learn and develop their skills. That's absolute what you get with Chad and I can't recommend him highly enough.
