Alex Parziale
Where do I begin? Jeff and I connected when I was in the process of changing positions at Team Velocity. It was a long transition and Jeff was my sounding board and voice of reason every step of the way. Jeff helped me navigate the uncharted waters, gave me support and advice when I needed it, and was the first person I would call when I received any good news! Thinking about it now makes me smile. Jeff always knew where I was coming from, always knew how to respond, and always knew what to say to help me understand any situation. He and I became close and I consider him a VERY GOOD friend. Jeff had this same type of relationship with MANY people at Team Velocity and I am positive that everyone would agree that he was an awesome person to be around and a true asset to the company. I am highly recommending Jeff to join a company where his skill set is needed. You may not even know your company needs a person like Jeff, but once he is part of your organization, his ripples will be felt throughout the entire organization in a very positive way. I am thrilled to be able to call Jeff a very close friend of mine. All the best, AP
