Randy and I have worked together on a project for Bluecross/BlueShield a few years back. Randy is a very technically and detail oriented worker, and has a knack for easing customer concerns about the technologies we work with. Randy is willing to be the face of the company, often travelling to customer sites both in the US to provide needed support. Randy always has innovative ideas to help these customers when they are having technological or business process issues.

David Ibarra, N.D., CHt.

Randy is a detail-oriented person and always follows through with the completion of projects. He is a self-starter and is very knowledgeable in his field of work whether it be in aircraft maintenance or in computer technology.
