He always focuses on results and making sure everyone is comfortable and taken care of. A great leader, mentor and friend. I’ll always appreciate the example of integrity and dedication he exemplified throughout our time together at college and the organizations we participated in together.", "Josh and I were teammates during our first semester of the BYU MPA program and we worked closely on multiple assignments. Josh was an exceptional team member who took a sincere interest in the thoughts and opinions of everyone on the team. He also took the lead quite naturally anytime we needed to brainstorm ideas for one of our projects, and made sure everyone's ideas were heard. This led to better decision-making and a sense of validation for all team members. In addition to being creative, genuine, and a natural leader, Josh is calm and confident under pressure. During both our final presentation and an improv team-building workshop, Josh responded easily to difficult questions. He is also smart and he works hard. Josh is a pleasure to work with. He cares about people, and he cares about the quality of his work just as much.", and "I worked with Josh closely when he was a student in my negotiation class and as my teaching assistant. He has excellent negotiation skills and won an intra-school negotiation competition, which led to representing BYU Law at an ABA regional negotiation competition. I worked with Josh to prepare for that competition and was hugely impressed with his analytical and strategic abilities. He assessed the fact pattern quickly and developed a very intelligent and effective approach. In the many negotiations in which he engaged, Josh was quick on his feet, adapted to changing situations effectively, and dealt with opposing parties with great skill and diplomacy. Josh continued to impress me as a teaching assistant. Not only was he hard working and reliable, but he developed an innovative spreadsheet to randomize and track pairings for negotiation simulations that has been a tremendous help. Josh has a very valuable combination of analytical, strategic, and communication skills, which have been enhanced by his training in both law and business schools. As an added bonus, he has a great sense of humor and he’s an all-around terrific person, well-liked by both faculty and students."
