I am grateful for the five years I worked with Pete at BST Global. I was always impressed with his dedication and passion when it came technology. He is rare in his ability to dive deep into technology while also leading a large organization. As a developer working for Pete, it was refreshing to have a manager in touch with the latest technology trends while at the same time, having a keen interest and understanding of the software we were developing. These qualities served Pete well as both the director of a large development team as well as Chief Technology Officer for the company. His understanding, vision, and experience in the software industry in conjunction with his trust in the development team yielded high satisfaction and productivity. I sincerely enjoyed working for Pete and highly recommend him for any technology leadership role.
