Colleagues describe them as "While serving as the marketing and public affairs representative for Marine Corps Recruiting Station Seattle, I had the pleasure of working directly for Willie. Over these nearly two years (August 2013-June 2015), I was consistently impressed by Willie's tireless efforts to contribute to the recruiting station's mission while filling the demanding billet as its executive officer, aka "XO" (our second in command). Willie draws from nearly 11 years of leadership experience both in recruiting and as a Harrier pilot with combat experience under his belt (Afghanistan). Whether dealing with senior officers or younger enlisted Marines under his charge, I observed him to be professional, approachable and to have a knack for communicating well, regardless of the situation. I've been fortunate to work for some phenomenal Marines who I both respect as leaders and men/women, and Willie is among these. He didn't ever ask or demand something of me that he wasn't willing to do himself. When I had challenges or needed some backup at work, Willie was quick to go to bat for me. On the personal front, he became a trusted friend who showed he cared by affording me space to take care of and spend time with my family amid my challenging billet. In growing as a leader, my goal is to apply myself to the best of my ability; treat subordinates, peers and highers fairly and professionally; excel in my job's core competencies; and provide a lasting impression that can improve everyone with whom I come into contact. Willie possesses these strengths and lives with great character, and this is how I know for certain he'll be successful in whichever field he ends up post-Marine Corps."
