Colleagues describe them as "I worked with Chris for over 8 years while he was Product Manager for the ADTRAN VoIP product line. I can attest that he has not only superior technical knowledge but a commitment to making things happen within the corporate organization. This resulted I significant wins for the company. He is results oriented and also has leadership capabilities. He would be a major contributor in any future endeavor that he takes on.", "I had the pleasure of working with Chris for almost 20 years. You will not meet a nicer or more knowledgeable individual. I enjoyed working with Chris on a variety of projects. Chris always keeps two things in mind: what is best for the company and what is best for the customer. Being able to balance these needs a consistently deliver results is rare, but Chris excelled. Chris is a highly skilled technical professional, but has the ability to discuss technology from a layman's perspective. This is a rare quality that is extremely valuable when dealing with non-technical customers, press and analysts, or members of the board. Chris also has a heart for the community. Prior to leaving our company, Chris championed a project to donate equipment to a local school system so Wi-Fi connectivity would be available in school parking lots during the last quarter of the 2019 school year. Chris not only got the equipment donated, but acquired technical volunteers to spend two days installing the equipment. He coordinated efforts with volunteers from our organization, the local utilities and the school system to see this project completed in record time. I think this is a perfect example of the type of person Chris is and why any organization would be lucky to have him as part of their staff.", and "It was my great pleasure to work with Chris for over a decade at ADTRAN, during which time we frequently worked new customer opportunities side by side. Chris’ capacity as a communicator that can put customers at ease even during times of crises is quite remarkable, particularly that it carried across cultures from across the globe. Chris was always meticulous in his customer meeting and conference event presentations. His deep understanding of the market, and in particular the competitive landscape helped us better position our solutions on many occasions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris for any role that demands the establishment of trust relationships in a high tech industry."
