Bio
Catherine (Velasquez) Watson
I have worked with Raul in several occasions and every time he has gone far beyond the line of duty. He is very responsive and he has the ability to relax the waters even in the most stressful situations. He has been an asset for my company not only in his work quality but also in his multitasking results. I have seen Raul resolve several customer issues in a short period of time while maintaining the highest quality of service. He also has the ability to tell people bad news in a very clever way that in another scenario will create chaos but his honesty and easy way of communication makes people understand and accept them in a nice and relaxed way. His knowledge on desktop support is outstanding, not only with windows but MAC environments. He is a great resource for any organization and is a pleasure working with him.
