Gary has the outstanding ability to perform any function required of him. He thoroughly performs his job to completion! And will give over 100%. We worked together at LPL, and as his QA manager I knew I could count on him every time.

Gary was a senior QA engineer and technical resource for all members of the team. He was also one of the main automation experts helping in automating complex network setups for testing. Through Gary's mentoring I learned a lot at my time at St. Bernard Software.
