Gabriel Morris, CFA

I had the pleasure of working with Rob for over twelve years. Rob was a joy to work with because he was passionate about his work and he always shared the many innovative ideas he contributed to moving the business forward. As a leader, he fostered a collaborative learning environment, which empowered team members to operate at their fullest potential. I often look back upon and leverage what Rob taught me about creating a culture of experimentation and failing fast when necessary.

I had the good fortune of working with Rob for many years, and during that time I got a firsthand view of Rob's strengths as a technology leader, as a people manager, and as a human being. Throughout his career at our firm, Rob was instrumental in establishing a number of the software engineering best practices that we consider to be second nature nowadays, including unit testing, version control, testing metrics and many others He also had an infectious enthusiasm for exploring new technologies that could help us achieve our goals. Rob subscribes to the view that software mimics the organization it is created in, and he always had a passion for improving the team as well as the software they create. In particular, he recognized the importance of laying out a clear vision and getting the team aligned around a common purpose. Perhaps most importantly, Rob exudes integrity and empathy. He frequently reminded his colleagues to "think good" of others, and he lives by these words. I have no hesitation in recommending Rob to a future employer.
