Bio
Ted Wickwire
I had the pleasure of working with Joe for 7 years. Joe served key roles on a number of projects including managing large and complex data sets, site and process research, spatial analysis and technical writing. He is an outstanding scientist with a vision for the larger project and a willingness to ask key questions to improve project outcomes. Joe writes with clarity and efficiency while summarizing complex scientific concepts for consumption by a diverse audience. He also demonstrated the ability to work independently or with large teams. I give Joe my highest recommendation.
Daniel Peerless
Joe developed a carbon footprint calculator that both addressed the unique characteristics of the audience being targeted and far exceeded our expectations in terms of the depth and quality of the underlying data. The platform was accessible to our novice users, but allowed for more detailed investigations for those who wanted it. In addition to providing a high-quality product, Joe was extremely easy to work with and very intuitive regarding the needs of the project; we gave him the general concept and he created exactly what we were looking for and more.
