Having worked with Ray on a strategy project I experienced his work ethic, precise thought and outstanding professionalism. Consequently I made it a priority to recruit Ray and have been delighted with his positive impact on the organization and the amazing results of his work.

Ray quickly came up-to-speed in a very complex project and now successfully manages a complicated matrix of politics and product to the betterment of Visa Europe. I trust Ray in front of our Board, the CxO's, and in any negotiation we have. He is skillful product manager, a detailed and thoughtful analyst, a wonderful teammate and a good friend.

I worked with Ray on two projects and on both occasions he immediately demonstrated his ability to deliver great work with minimal guidance. From managing the tedious details, to thinking strategically, and building personal relationships, Ray is a great employee and colleague who can add value to any company.

I worked in a pioneering programme on behalf of Ray, and as an E-Commerce Manager, found him to be creative and innovative with a strong sense of self worth and his capabilities. He is committed to his work, driving organisational change through a service-orientated attitude. He has a rare mix of understanding supplier capacity versus customer requirements and was involved in the full project cycle of development, testing and deployment. Ray would be an invaluable Manager, leader and change catalyst to any programme of work.

Ray is one of the best people I have worked with. His attention to detail combined with seeing the big picture and strategy is phenomenal.
For product management and evangelizing new and bold ideas, I would hire Ray any day of the week.
Great to work with, a true collaborator and a guy that knows to put his foot down when decision time comes.

I managed Ray on two long-term projects at Silver Oak. We initially hired Ray because of his very strong analytical skills and drive and were not disappointed. In his work Ray demonstrated an impressive ability to
develop new skills and grasp new concepts / frameworks quickly. He was very comfortable with advanced analytics and was able to develop insights and operational strategies that resulted in significant, measurable benefits for the client. Overall Ray is a great team player
- he will be a great asset to any team.

Ray and I worked closely together on a specific project at Visa Europe. I found Ray to be a very loyal, trustworthy and dependable member of the team. His key strengths as a team player included the ability to sense when his colleagues needed support and to offer it and also to do whatever needed to be done to move the project forward. As an individual, his strengths are that he is very detail-orientated and structured in his thought process, which was immensely helpful to me during the project.
