Bio
Chris Beerbower
Rob and I have worked together for the past eight years in a variety of different roles in the Colorado Army National Guard. During that period Rob has continually proven to be a driven leader, a person who cares not only about the mission but also his people. He can be trusted to get the job done no matter the challenges. Rob is also a dedicated family man who cares deeply for his family and friends. Rob and I have had the opportunity to work together on several operations and simply put this is the kind of person you want on your team. I was always impressed with his public speaking abilities and ability to drill down to the root cause of any challenge. I heartily recommend Rob for any position that he chooses to apply for and would be happy to work with him again.
Andrew Pollart
Rob's ability to plan, organize, execute, and evaluate are second to none. If I were to be asked to list 5 items that contributed to our success in Iraq, Rob Soper would easily be in the top two. His constant efforts aligned a clearly disorganized training plan allowing for an aviation battalion to successfully train, deploy, fight, and redeploy with zero loss of life. Couple his professional attributes with his personality and any organization would be lucky to have him as an employee.
