Bio
Bill Nero
I have worked with Dan for three years now and have seen him grow not only as an individual but a valued employee as well. His desire to learn our diverse product line and his ability to contribute worth while suggestions was extremely refreshing. He interacts with customer very well and developed a large following of customers that only wanted to talk to him. I think that speaks volumes. I can highly recommend Dan for any position as I am certain he would tackle them with the same enthusiasm he showed us.

Though Daniel was with us on a short-term summer internship, he immediately made his presence felt and within mere weeks he was viewed as a full-fledged member of the team. The impact of Daniel's contributions to the organization will be felt long after the conclusion of his internship. He eagerly pursued challenging assignments and complex projects that I would normally assign to more seasoned professionals. Daniel's drive and his desire to learn are key attributes that will serve him well as he progresses in his career. I look forward to hearing of his future successes.
