Brian performed the traditional role of heading the FP&A team and was a member of the Executive Management Team, plotting the company strategy. Brian played an influential role within the executive management team by voicing his recommendations whether they aligned with the majority or not. I tapped Brian to represent Finance on the Operational Risk Committee and the Technology Investment Decisioning Group. I leveraged his judgement for all major decisions that were made at Sallie Mae during the past six years. He has exceptional analytical skills, is fluent in Treasury and Capital markets and has great business sense for what creates shareholder value. I depended on Brian to be the on-going point of contact, business-wide, for all finance matters. In this capacity he provided feedback and identified issues of concern for Accounting, Treasury, Capital Markets, and financial performance. The Executive Management Team and I were able to count on Brian to provide a balanced and rational review of the key issues which earned him respect across the organization at all levels. Brian was one of my top reports and my right-hand man. He is hard working, honest and trustworthy. He will add significant value to any organization. Brian would excel as the CFO of a small to mid-sized company or in any senior financial position. " and "As co-founder of Credit One Financial Solutions, Brian was my first hire. We needed a CPA with strong consumer banking experience and, more importantly, someone capable of thriving in a fast-paced start-up where he would lead the building and integration of our financial systems and interact with investors and bankers. Brian demonstrated his versatility when COFS was acquired by Sallie Mae. As Sallie Mae's SVP of financial planning and analysis, Brian was our go to executive as we evaluated new products, pricing, processes and technology. Brian always brought a collaborative style to any discussion and I could always count on him to provide objective and insightful analysis to inform our key strategic and operational initiatives. Brian enjoys a well-deserved reputation at Sallie Mae as a leader who can recruit, develop and retain talent. Brian brings well-honed financial skills to any situation but his high EQ and passion for building, not just maintaining, a business sets him apart from many financial executives.
