Ronnie has a unique ability to bring a practical perspective to the table when dealing with both everyday operations and complicated problems. While he has an excellent technical knowledge stemming from experience, he is always open to new ideas and sees value in feedback from others. Ronnie's practical knowledge and his creativity allow him to be an excellent planner and scheduler as well. I would absolutely recommend Ronnie as an asset to any company.
