Russ has an amazing knowledge of technology. He recently lead an instructional webinar on Podcasting. His attention to detail and explaining podcasting was made easy to understand.

Russ has served as a trusted associate, consultant, and source of direction and expertise in our shared fields for a number of years now. Through his experience, insight, and consultative feedback, Russ has helped me and many of our shared associates to grow and prosper in their business and professional endeavors. My level of confidence in Russ and his team are to the point that I personally hired him to completely revamp and build the 3T Funding website for the future. If you value insightful feedback, experience, and market know-how for your current and future business ventures, I highly recommend you add Russ to your team.

I have had the pleasure of working with Russell on numerous projects and have not only been impressed by his professionalism, but also his way to positively affect projects and teams. Russell has the valuable ability to quickly determine a customer’s needs and then successfully provide a viable solution to fulfill those needs. In addition, Russell’s capability to be an operational leader and coordinate a strong team add to his success. I would, without a doubt, recommend Russell.

There is one thing nobody can deny about Russ: he is very positive. When the chips are down and everyone fears the worse, Russ has this unique ability to pull the group together and point out the advantages of the situation. But his often overlooked quality is his listening skill, which I believe is his secret to gaining the trust of everyone around him. Personally, I am surprised he is not already promoted to lead the entire business.

Russ and I worked together on several wireless network deployments for Safeco in Seattle, WA. Although the project spanned several months, the coordination between various trades and Safeco often required last minute requests for resources from Russ and his team. Additionally, he was asked to help solve several implementation challenges that were clearly outside of his area of responsibility. Throughout the project, Russ remained focused on achieving superior results for his customer. When faced with high pressure and somewhat stressful situations, he simply would not crack. I can't recall a time that I did not see him with a smile on his face or a positive word to share.

It was truly a pleasure working with Russ. I would not hesitate to work with him again if the opportunity arises. He is a true professional and definitely an asset to every effort he is a part of.

Over the last 2 years I have had the pleasure of working with Russ at Netversant in Seattle where he is the National Director of Wireless Operations.

Russ is organized, efficient, and willing to do whatever is needed to get a particular task finished to the satisfaction of his clients. Because there were often last-minute deadlines, his cooperative attitude and good cheer were important and appreciated by all employees.

Russ is also genuinely concern with the well being of all employees. While striving for customer satisfaction, Russ is very successful in allowing employees to maintain a healthy division between their personal and work environments leading to successful, healthy and highly effective employees.

Russ is a caring, confident and highly qualified manager and I recommend him highly.

During the two years I worked with Russell on an Enterprise Wireless deployment for Swedish Medical Center, he diplayed an extremely high level of professionalism, was very detail oriented and ensured that the resources assigned to him completed their tasks on time. Ultimately as a result the Wireless deployment project was successful and I would recommend Russell on any project moving forward.

Russ is the type of leader and teacher that you want to work hard for every day. His positive attitude and business methodology are a major reason for my personal success and I am proud to call Russ a mentor and a friend.

There are few colleagues, both present, and past, that achieve the levels of focus and discipline that Russell continues to demonstrate.

He is thoughtful, approaches challenges with a realistic outlook, and as a leader, gives his team the support, direction, and motivation that's required.

I've certainly enjoyed working with Russell, who is also a personable and considerate.
