Ian R.

Skipp is a highly effective education project manager with keen instincts and outstanding interpersonal skills who thrives in an agile, collaborative environment. It was a pleasure working on teams with Skipp, as he consistently shared creative ideas and helped meet tight deadlines thanks to his diligent work ethic and proactive communication strategies.

John Allan

I have known Skipp as an educator, an events manager and as an educational coordinator. He remains calm and maintains focus while resolving issues of scheduling, planning, conflict resolution and forecasting. As well, I have had the pleasure of working with him and an educational peer. In my experience, he excels in his primary duties through attention to detail and diligence. He draws upon his extensive experience and continuous professional upgrading through degrees and certifications to add value to teams through steadfast leadership and offering considered alternatives. Any company would be fortunate to have Skipp on their team.
