MICHAEL’S CREDENTIALS

What People Are Saying About Michael

“Michael has reported directly to me for the last two years. In my time working with him, I have found him to be incredibly hardworking and studious. He has a capacity to complete specialized projects in a way that clearly delineates him from his co-workers. Has shown a strong propensity for teamwork and personal organization. His wide range of skills and his adaptability would make him a great asset in multiple different roles within any organization.”

Joe Rico
VP business Operations, eei

“Mike is the consummate business professional. When I contacted him about adding to my network’s security stack, he responded immediately and carefully listened as I described our company’s needs. With thoughtful consideration, Mike made sure I had the proper training, and together we were able to find a solution that not only made me happy but my boss too! I cannot recommend him enough.”

Mike DeLuna
TECHNICAL ACCOUNT MANAGER

“Michael was employed as the VP of Sales & Marketing, and managed marketing projects and programs, including marketing campaigns, content creation, CRM adoption and sales onboarding. Michael was able to reach hundreds of new users for our product introduction. He kept calendars and schedules for marketing campaign content. He was also involved in managing the website’s design, maintenance and its vital landing pages creation. Michael would be an asset to any employer.”

Steve “Ziggy” Shanklin
CEO, white cloud security

“Michael has the drive and focus to achieve his goals. He was a wonderful student who added to our discussions and was involved with in depth case studies. Thanks to him I was nominated for and won the “Spirit of Inquiry” award from the John W. Pope Center for Higher Education in recognition of outstanding and open-minded exploratory courses, namely my World Business course which expands on why businesses exist, how they operate, and the frameworks that enable them. Michael has a bright future ahead of him.”

Dr Derek Yonai
graduate professor, campbell university

I highly prescribe Michael. He was in charge of numerous responsibilities including but not limited to IT adoption and deprecation as well as meter manufacturing shop management tasks (procurement, billing, inventory control, etc), both of which required requirement gathering, scheduling, process creation and documentation, cost analysis, stakeholder and risk management. He carries with him a knowledge of the technical systems as well as an advanced work ethic. Any team Michael joins is set to excel.

Randy Ferson
Municipal sales manager, eei

“Michael was able to put my business into the eyes of new locals that had never even heard of us before! He has great communication and provided our website with a great design! He was able to utilize his search engine and marketing skills to bring in new clientelle including travelers using GPS map applications by registering my company with Google Business Services. I turn to him when I have questions or need answers in the project and/or digital realm!”
