Bio
Eric Franey
Richard was in my chain of command while I was directing AT&T's high-profile, national Wi-Fi rollout. Richard was a hand-picked member to a very high-performance (special forces-like) team. Richard was an A-player on that team of high performers. Some noteworthy highlights: Intimately involved with the acquisition of top brands, including a deal with McDonald's where he was integral with pricing, strategy and profitability management. Richard also worked directly with other important brands to secure initial Wi-Fi deals. He showed good judgement by quickly escalating to me when a client was close to walking away--those actions led to the deal being saved. Perhaps most importantly, Richard contributed with great customer and technology insights, understanding the needs of our partners, and worked with them to showcase WiFi. He helped ensure our product, pricing, and promotions were optimized for success. Richard is a joy to have on any technology-related marketing team.

Richard is a gifted thinker and has incredible work ethic. I had the pleasure of working with him at Kellogg and later on a side project after graduation. He always comes to projects with an open arm and is a joy to kick ideas around with. He is also a great executor and once he accepts a project / an idea, you know that project is DONE. I will have him as part of my team any day.
