Bio
John T (J.T.) Vanderkamp
I had the pleasure of having Joel on my team for over 2 years. During that time he consistently demonstrated the skills necessary of an excellent project manager. He is an organized and efficient leader of project teams, smoothly balancing client interactions and needs with those of internal firm stakeholders and leads - all while managing the financial health of the project. He understands how to have a consultative approach with the clients best interests at heart. On top of those business skills, he's very personable and able to relate with team members to bring the best out of each one. Joel would be a tremendous addition to any team in search of a tremendous project manager.

I had the pleasure of working with Joel during our time at Sears Holdings. Joel was the primary project manager dedicated to supporting our Brand Showcases. His commitment and dedication to supporting these experiences contributed to an additional revenue stream for the company. Joel's positive attitude, organization and patience were key factors in achieving that success!

Joel managed several high profile projects for me. One was a product my team developed called the Brans Showcases. The showcases are experiences that we would sell to partners so they could tell their brand story on sears.com. The showcases turned out to be a phenomenal success. Much of the credit should go to Joel for making this happen. His skill as a project manager kept us moving forward, meeting the milestones, and kept our growing list of clients happy.
