Harry was the project leader for several of the Division's largest and most complex projects in the time I worked with him. His ability to get people to come together and work as a team, to intelligently manage the planning, costs, timeline, and deliverables of the projects was unequaled in my experience. When the business needed a complex project to come in on-time, within budget, and with the required results, they consistently went to Harry.

Being a member of Harry’s team at Time Warner Cable is an experience that I truly enjoyed. His forward-thinking and leadership skills ushered our team out of traditional broadcasting methods and pointed us toward a more efficient and innovative approach. Harry is highly knowledgeable in his field and is definitely an asset to any team that he’s a part of.
