Bio
Todd Turner
I had the opportunity to hire and manager Russell in his LTR role with McGraw-Hill. Right out of the gates, "Russ" had a great attitude and drove to outwork the competition. As he grew in the LTR position, he became a sales technology leader within my team by continually outperforming his peers with live demos. I always found Russ was easy to manage because he self-coached himself well. He is also helpful and friendly to his peers. I would recommend Russ for anyone that is looking for a driven professional that is looking to grow within a changing business.

Russ is a solid and dependable team player. In the face of adversity and challenge selling a product line with an obscene number of competitors, he managed to succeed in driving new and renewed business! When I was on the same team with him, he constantly volunteered and rose to the challenge of being the lead on many distributor partnerships, to much success in supporting not only his individual territory but also the territories of his peers and sales district as a whole. Russ is an evangelist and would make an amazing asset to any company!
