Colleagues describe him as "I met TJ in January 2021 when he hired me as a software developer on his team. TJ took me under his wing to teach me about the team’s products, the company, and healthcare IT in general. He was incredibly patient and thorough during my onboarding process and was always willing to set aside his other commitments to make sure he was available to teach. TJ cultivates an environment in which teammates feel safe having disagreements about how to solve problems, which results in the best ideas emerging. He is also passionate about his engineers having the free time and financial resources to develop their skills, and he consistently goes out of his way to secure those resources for his team. While he is a great delegator, he’s also not afraid to jump into a pair or group programming session to help unblock his teammates. TJ also prioritizes the needs of his teammates to foster high-performing teams. When I expressed interest in transitioning from development to product management, TJ was nothing but supportive. He went out of his way to set me up with a mentor and a development plan that would empower me to enhance the skills needed to take on a product management role. His support was instrumental in my role transition. Even after I no longer reported to him, he continued to schedule weekly one-on-one meetings to provide constructive feedback and lend an ear. I am a better professional for having known and worked with TJ. He is an elite technologist, leader, and friend. I hope I have the opportunity to work with him again someday."
