Bud (Edgar) and I worked with each other for several years. He is always a pleasure to work with and has a hilarious personality that will keeps the office environment light and bright. He uses these soft skills and leadership styles to bring teams together to accomplish goals and achieve results. People that work with Bud WANT to be successful due to his infectious positivity and drive for results. He is able to do this, not only within the physical office, but also with resources that he manages overseas. It is a true talent. You may notice that I have only referred to Bud's leadership style and personality but not his skillset. I think the other recommendations and his work history speaks to his knowledge, work ethic, and skills. If you want something done, Bud gets it done. Done right. Done on time. Done while exceeding expectations. I hope I get the opportunity to work with Bud again in the future.
