I had the pleasure of working with JD in building a new service offering at The Nerdery. He brought a very pragmatic and innovative approach to the opportunity and created a successful line of business that many of our employees wanted to be involved in. He grew revenue while providing great value to our customers and opportunity to learn, grown, and make impact to our Nerds.
