“You were needed much earlier.” “One of the best teaching DBAs I have ever met.” “Though it was never his official role, he is a natural teacher. I think this comes from confidence in his ability, and a true desire to work well with others.” When Beck first recruited me to his team, he told me he would increase my future salary value by two fold. However that was an gross underestimation; a few years later my value went up by a factor of 20."I found him to be an elegant and original thinker. I am confident in his skills and integrity." “Beck has earned the respect and praise of the client, his customer, and the entire project staff. He is the "go to guy" for technical assistance in just about any technical area” “He is able to communicate and work seamlessly with all levels in an organization from C-level to technicians.” “Beck's skill-set crosses not only the technical but business side of the Data Center industry.” “Beck is one of the sharpest technical people I know.” “In addition to his broad and deep technical competence in the fields of Information Technology and Business, Beck displays maturity, focus, work ethic, adaptability, interpersonal skills and the ability to learn.” “During his time with our organization, Beck has received high praise and earned respect as not only a technically competent individual but a proactive leader.” "Without a doubt, you have done an excellent job as an individual and also as a team. With enormous Oracle DB expertise and experience, our database will keep going in Beck’s reliable hands." “If I see Beck leaving the building carrying a box, I’m leaving too, no questions asked” “You can do any job in the technology stack. That is one of the reasons you receive so much respect.” "I appreciate how you challenged me to think critically about the environments that we supported, and allowed me to learn and grow under your mentorship."
