Bio
Jason Goodman
I managed Greg for a number of years while he was with Pearson and Savvas as a long term contract employee. Greg was one of the best employees that I have ever managed and would not hesitate to hire him again if the opportunity arose in the future. Greg is a highly competent, highly skilled person. His knowledge of the technical skills necessary for his position were extremely helpful to help our team in our day to day activities. Greg always goes above and beyond expectations with the detailed information necessary to satisfy internal and external stakeholders. Greg regularly received high level praise from both customers and colleagues alike. If you are fortunate enough to have Greg interview for a position with your company, hire him as quickly as you can - you will not regret it.

Greg is an outstanding system administrator. I have been closely working with him for 3 years in one of the first common core based 'Digital Only' learning management systems. Being a digital first product, this requires not only sound technical skills, but also out of the box thinking, customer expectation management. Greg has excelled in all his job responsibilities and created a great empathy for the customers. He also proactively works with other teams to identify/ resolve potential issues. He is definitely an invaluable asset to any technical department. I would highly recommend him for similar/ greater roles.
