A.N. (Alex) O.

While being my direct colleague, I got to know Gerry as a skilful automation engineer, who was able to understand the complex systems of our customer and had the technical skills required to make difficult on-site modifications. In later years, where we both left the company, we have always stayed in touch, both from a friendship point of view as well as with the intent to share automation knowledge and that has been a benefit for the both of us. I can recommend Gerry as a dedicated engineer and teamplayer, who can be of great assistance in for example PLC and/or SCADA automation projects where major brands like AVEVA (Wonderware) or Simatic (Siemens) are used.

Gerry is an enthusiastic and pleasant colleague with a strong hands-on mentality. He will always strive to find the best practical solutions, an owned critical view and experience as an automation software developer help him achieve goals. His non-stop learning attitude and the knowledge acquired with it, makes him a valuable asset to companies in diverse industries. Gerry, it has been a great experience working with you! I wish you prosperity in your career and I hope our paths will cross again!
