Bio
Josh Tracy
I believe it is rare that you come across a standout talent like Shane. His ability to accomplish numerous and challenging tasks in a highly proficient manner is unmatched. Few people have the opportunity to work with someone who is both peer and mentor but because of the entrepreneurial nature of our startup company we were able to take on numerous roles. Shane is highly capable of excelling as a teammate and as a manager. ‘Tenacious’ and ‘multitalented’ are words that come to mind when I think about Shane. I had the pleasure of working with Shane for three years at echo, collaborating on several projects. Shane expertly filled the role of our Chief Technology Officer, where he engineered our company’s products and was instrumental in every piece of technology in our company. I was particularly impressed by Shane’s ability to handle even the toughest problems—effortlessly. His tirelessness and dedication towards solving the issues were unmatched and it seemed to come perfectly naturally to him. Shane’s ability to juggle multiple projects simultaneously was unlike any I’ve seen before and made a dramatic difference in the productivity level of our team. Along with being a highly productive member of the team, Shane is also a pleasure to work with on a personal level. His personable nature makes him enjoyable to be around and always approachable. No matter how tense the meeting, a conversation with Shane always ends with the other party feeling uplifted. Shane would without a doubt, be a most valuable asset to any team. As a team member or a leader, Shane earns my highest recommendation.
