        I have had the opportunity to work with Aaron on multiple implementations at ACS. Aaron has always been proactive in supporting the multiple initiatives with his knowledge in healthcare and understanding of multiple processes. He is a good leader and motivated his team of analysts to meet their deliverables on time. 

Aaron also effectively navigated the multiple demands on time and processes that arose with every new project. I respect Aaron's professional advice and look forward to working with him on many successful implementations Kumar Bhargava S.
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        Aaron can keep a balance between the client and the developers. He allowed flexibility and could build a team spirit. His actions were enough to motivate the team (Even off-shore). He was very organized and prioritized the work so the client and the team never felt the pressure. It was a great pleasure working with him. I will not want to miss a chance to work with him again.
