“Christopher is an energetic, conscientious task master who brings an incredible depth of experience in the software industry to bear to make things happen. His enthusiasm and sense of humor make it easy to work with him, even as he pokes and prods to suss out missed details of a project plan gone awry. Chris is great at linking people and resources as well as asking insightful questions. I trust in his professionalism without reservation and thoroughly enjoy counting him among my colleagues.”
