Bio
Laura Felusiak, MBA
I’ve had the privilege to work and most importantly learn from Tony during our hands-on MBA studies at Prairie View. First off, his engineering expertise is sound and solid. Secondly, Mr. Trim’s interpersonal talents make him a sought-after professional. Tony demonstrates integrity and wisdom. I’m lucky to call him my friend and mentor.
Eric Flores, MBA, PE
Working with Furbert has been a great experience. We worked together on a major drilling control system (NOVOS) with IoT and predictive analytics technology, which involved many different business units at NOV. In this cross-functional team, he has shown a great effort in trying to resolve issues. He is very proactive in helping other team members, as well as takes on challenges to learn new things and perform tasks outside his realm. He remains positive during stressful times and relates that energy to others. I feel that any team would be successful to achieve their goals by having a member such as Furbert.
