Bio
John Pistner
I had the opportunity to interview and hire Craig at Movado Watch Co. As it’s President I interviewed Craig because he had never been in wholesale sales. I saw in Craig with what all quality mangers need. He had great drive and tenacity with the will to learn. Craig was a star at Movado. What a great pleasure to work along side him and see him grow into one of Movado Watch company’s finest.

Craig was my manager at Chamilia. He led through inspiring and developing us to deliver results. He set and communicated clear direction to our team on what needed to be accomplished and how it can be achieved at a high level. Craig encouraged communication creating an open environment to ask questions, get feedback and share concerns. He understood each person’s skill level, career goals, and created opportunities for us to learn new skills while at the same time accomplishing what the company needed the team to produce. I highly recommend Craig as a very effective manager or partner for any team!!!
