Bio
Richard Loe
Chris was a software test engineer for a fielded DoD application. I was the requirements manager. Chris was hard working, diligent and very thorough which are important qualifications for testing. Chris is pleasant to work with and a good team player. His efforts were a major contribution to the successful on-time delivery and on-going maintenance of this application that was fielded at every Air Force base in the US.
