Bio
Tom Hundley
Michelle Welcks is one of the smartest and most capable people I know. I have had the honor of working with Michelle at Elegant Software Solutions for the past seven and a half years, and I have been consistently impressed by her visionary leadership and exceptional problem-solving skills. She is a rare gem in the industry. Michelle's commitment to excellence is unparalleled. She has an extraordinary ability to lead and inspire teams to achieve their full potential. Her leadership skills are top-notch, and she has been instrumental in setting up Elegant Software Solutions for success. Michelle is a true visionary who is not only capable of identifying key issues but also able to provide elegant and sustainable solutions to complex problems. Michelle's ability to evaluate and assess new trends in technology is remarkable. She has an uncanny ability to distinguish between important developments that need attention and temporary fads that will soon be forgotten. Her attention to detail is truly impressive, and her unique talent for translating complicated business problems into state-of-the-art technical solutions is second to none. Michelle is an incredibly fast learner and has an impressive ability to solve any problem that comes her way. Her enthusiasm for new challenges and her commitment to excellence make her an outstanding candidate for any role that requires vision, leadership, and technical expertise. I highly recommend Michelle as a hands-on technical leader. She will undoubtedly become an invaluable asset to any organization she joins. She is an exceptional talent and a pleasure to work with, and any organization would be lucky to have her on their team.

I found working with Michelle was an enlightening experience. Her knowledge and insights in the world of application design were always right on target, and made it easier for others to understand the leading-edge technology that we needed to learn about. Although our careers at IBM were not in the same fields, it was apparent that she added tremendous value in her various I/T roles there. And working with her at ESS I was better able to comprehend the value of an outstanding architect's visionary direction. I would work with Michelle again anywhere, and would recommend her to anyone seeking the best I/T developer.
