I’ve had the pleasure of working with Tony on several projects over the years and he is an awesome Program Manager. He’s well organized, effectively manages high profile projects and demonstrates a strong work ethic. Tony is skilled at driving results even in the most challenging projects. He keeps a cool head and maintains his professionalism in difficult situations/conversations. I would gladly work on any project with him leading.
David Laiewski
I worked with Tony for about 12 years and he reported to me directly for 6 of those. First as a developer, Tony was very meticulous and focused on providing solid solutions for the business. When I was tasked with building a team of project managers Tony was one of the first to come on board. I will just say, Tony is a PM Rockstar! He is very detail oriented and does a fabulous job balancing the customer requirements and the project team delivery. Tony would be an invaluable asset to any organization.
