I have had the pleasure of working with Pete on numerous projects over a two year period. Pete has a vast array of tools in his toolbox. My favorite of the tools is his ability to apply practical and professional language to virtually any product or service. This is a gift and it is quite amazing to witness.

Pete and I worked on both the brand of NWVOX online and offline. this encompasses building up the marketing assets of NWVOX: with items such as a new redesigned from the code up for each capability of the website. We also added a new internal process created to facilitate this action architected by Pete. This included the way customers interacted with support, sales, and billing. Pete and I worked to create as much automation as possible in the sales and support side of the business.

Pete’s ability to see the problem from both an internal, “how it is to be achieved” as well as seeing how the process would look and feel to the customer was truly the needed element in creating a top of the line marketing strategy that got results across the board. Pete’s ability to manage and direct creatives building our graphics, logos, and other graphic elements really made the Brand of NWVOX stand out from other VoIP Phone Systems.

Pete is creative and logical in his approach to the holistic and foundational needs of an organization while allowing others to contribute and collaborate. He is not afraid of change or criticism and adapts with the needs and changes of the market. I enjoy working with Pete. He is a, “get it done” kind of person who works tirelessly to achieve the goals set before him. I am grateful for what I learned from him and how he helped to shape the brand of NWVOX.

My only hesitation in recommending Pete is that I want him to be available to work with me! And once you work with him, you won’t want to let him go either. I needed a total revamp of my website and brand so I gave Pete my ideas, inspirations, and what I thought I wanted, then set him loose. What he came back with was better than I could have imagined.

The navigation, vivid images, and clear content were more than I even knew I wanted. My new logo and brand were clean, simple, and spot-on. And that’s Pete’s magic.

You give him your ideas and thoughts about what you want — be it for a web site, branding, social media campaign, or large marketing project and then let him do his thing and he delivers MORE than expected every time.

And he beats deadlines.
And he comes in on or below budget.
And he’s easy and straightforward to work with.

When it was time to re-brand another website I acquired, the process was even easier the second time. He knew what I liked, what worked, my market segment, and knocked the redesign out of the park. Pete has skills in web design, branding, marketing, and media. If I was anything but a sole proprietor, I would hire him in an instant.

Hire Pete – you will be thrilled you did – but leave him a little extra time to still work with me.

You rarely come across standout talent like Pete. I had the pleasure of working with Pete for a year while he supported our client. He oversaw IT Security Compliance projects, working with several stakeholders, including 3rd party vendors, employees, and other contractors.

Pete always received exceptional feedback from our client as they were particularly impressed by Pete’s ability to handle even the most challenging tasks—effortlessly. That skill often takes a long time to develop among their employees, but it seemed to come to Pete naturally.

Pete’s ability to build relationships and learn Information Security compliance standards which included new standards to the industry, was incredible to witness from the outside. It was an easy decision for our client to bring Pete on as a full-time employee due to the measurable impact he made on their initiatives within and outside of his original role scope.

If a team needs an ambitious, idea-generating, hard-working, self-driven individual, Pete earns my highest recommendation.

Pete is a contentious, skilled, and professional cast member who was an important member of my team at Walt Disney World Resort. He is a team-player who is genuinely interested in collaborating and creating connections to drive results across teams. Pete’s ability to translate highly technical concepts into easily understood and operational information is a key to his success. I am very glad to know and had the opportunity to work with Pete and know he will continue to bring value and results throughout his career.

Do you have a product ready to go and need success immediately? Pete is who you need. I have handed Pete various tasks with less than 90 days, seeing him turn a failing situation into one more successful than our best projections while saving an entire business from going under. I have also seen him launch various products, never compromising on quality and presentation, leading to repeated continued success. Pete doesn’t compromise on quality and knows what it takes to get success, just be prepared for a laugh or two along the way.

Fred Kosiewski (JD, MBA, ICA)

Sr. Manager, Labor Relations at Disney Parks, Experiences and Products

Pete is an amazing analyst who helped me quite considerably in a project. Pete’s keen eye for identifying trends in data and presenting them in a thoughtful and provocative way allowed me to change perceptions of what caused issues in the field. I’d recommend Pete any day.

Richard Stokes

Senior Network Engineer at Ednetics

Pete and I wore down the soles of our shoes, busting down comm closet after comm closet, and patched equipment in MDFs and IDFs all over Oregon, Idaho, and Washington.

Pete always came to work ready to focus, brought incredible efficiency into the work, and had the energy to shine bright! Given the chance, I’d hire him again.

Mary Romano

Data Quality Manager at The Walt Disney Company

I had the honor of working with Pete during his time in the Risk Management Department at The Walt Disney Company. He is an incredibly driven professional and has a natural ability to work successfully within any team; he brought pure joy to any project or assignment. Pete has always been a quick learner and at the same time, is continually seeking out opportunities to increase his knowledge and skill set. I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with him.

Robin Brown

VP/Senior Account Executive at MedRisk

I have worked with a few web designers, and I must say that Pete outshines them all with his ability to communicate difficult concepts into easy to understand decisions. His friendly and easygoing approach to my questions and requests is appreciated. Pete has been upfront and honest about the work completed and fees charged. Due to the consistency, he has shown over the past 8 ½ years, I can rely on him to get the job done. Our project is maintaining a web site for a once-a-year conference. Whether I ask for a small update to our site or several requests for big changes, he helps me meet our deadlines.

Bill Stewart

Sr. Business Systems Analyst at Walt Disney World

Pete is a “Swiss Army Knife” when it comes to anything related to information technology and its use by businesses. He has the expertise, real-life experience, and knowledge of what tools to use and how to use them.

Pete is extremely Detailed and Logical. He applies these traits to everything he does. He is very Cyber Security aware and ensures others share that view. Over the years, I have worked with Pete on Security Projects involving in-house and Vendor Systems, and I have been very impressed with his knowledge and contagious personality.

Analytics/Reporting is also a passion for Pete. Any Business should and will be grateful to have Pete on their Team.

Ryan Parent

General Manager at Best Buy

I had the pleasure of working with Pete during my time at Best Buy. Even though we worked for different companies (he worked for Apple), he made sure our agendas and goals were always aligned. Pete has an amazing work ethic, a deep understanding of world-class customer service, and is the consummate professional. He is detail-oriented and extremely organized.

Pete was always developing strategies and training content to help employees, and the company, achieve their goals. I’m not an easy manager to impress, but I was thoroughly impressed by Pete. If I were a hiring manager in the position to onboard talent, I would scoop him up in a heartbeat since I’m confident he would produce nothing other than a top quality product.
