        Tony was instrumental in taking EqualLogic validation and testing criteria from Ground Zero to its present state today. His documentation of iSCSI requirements and Best Practices for EqualLogic is responsible for millions of dollars saved from CSAT issues.

Tony has great attention to detail and his interpersonal skills while dealing with very technical situations were exceptional!  Larry Hart
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        Tony is a detailed, results-oriented, team player. He pushes hard while staying focused on the strategic objectives of the project. I have seen him drive Storage programs that would have gone no where to a successful conclusion. On top of that he's an astute individual who's a pleasure to work with.
