I had the privilege of being able to work with Rick where I saw him expertly facilitate the transportation of hazardous goods from Guam to four other countries, which were critical for joint exercises with SEAL teams and other special operation forces, both U.S. and foreign allies. With constant changes to schedules and requirements, he didn't miss a step in the whole process. If you are looking for someone who can get the resources where they need to go, utilizing the right people in the right positions, and being able to strategically plan on how to accomplish the tasks, then this is a man that you need on your team!
