Lauren B.

Randy is an extremely sharp and charismatic leader with the ability to command the attention of a group unlike any I have ever seen. His extreme work ethic and precise attention to detail made him an invaluable asset to our Product team at Stance. Randy was always a complete pleasure to work with and could be counted on to make unique and substantive contributions to any meeting he was included in. He has the ability to clearly articulate the issue at hand and offer solutions that are driven by data and company goals. Any organization would be lucky to have Randy on board.
