I worked with Greg during his time with Oniqua in Denver and always found him willing and able to help support my sales efforts in Europe. Nothing was too much trouble and Greg always found a way to add value to a proposal or RFP response. He has extensive industry knowledge and I would have no hesitation in recommending Greg.
