Forrest has a great attention to detail, is very professional, and responsive to issues. He has excellent knowledge and finishes all tasks on time. He is a pleasure to work with.

Peter Crook, PMP®

I was an executive consultant with Gen4Energy for more than a year, and worked with/ for Forrest on many initiatives. Forrest’s overall responsibility included front and back office management (Controller to PR), legal and IP coordination, and HR and subcontractor management; of which I was one. Forrest has the critical thinking skills required for being a highly-valued asset in today’s business environment with a working understanding between strategic and tactical and the appropriate time and place for each. Forrest is an individual who can add immeasurable value during the planning and strategic process, and then turn around and execute/manage the plan through clear communication, proper delegation and empowerment, and solid leadership.
