Michael Mulick

While working with Sherman I was consistently impressed by his diligence and adaptability. In a fast paced and ever changing environment, Sherman was able to adjust rapidly to new supply routes, return procedures, and inventory management standards. It was a pleasure to have someone on my team that I could always count on to work well with everyone and help drive morale while completing any task. His comprehension of most anything tech was heavily relied on for in-the-field troubleshooting as well as long term planning for tech-centered solution roll outs. Sherman's creative background also lent itself to helping make effective signage helping to enforce policies account wide. He was always able to deliver the intended communication effectively by distilling the message to the most simple elements; it was always quite impressive to watch. Any employer will be very glad to have him supporting their team and company.

I've had the pleasure to have worked with Sherman Waysome for 3 years, in which time he has contributed tremendously to the team i managed. His attitude and productivity have been consistent. Sherman's attitude and motivation exceeded my expectations, and demonstrated the ability to articulate information and ideas both verbal and written. I particularly appreciate his willingness to take initiative in training new hires, completing deadline driven tasks, and conveying instructions to the rest of the team. I recommend Sherman without reservation. I am confident that he will establish productive relationships with any staff and constituents.

Sherman is one of the most persistent and trustworthy people I know. During our time in school he showed a large amount of care for anyone in need of help. Not only is Sherman a very capable and talented artist, he has a great personality. -Believe It!-
