“I've known Tom for more than five years. Tom was a
strong advocate for web accessibility (my job's purpose) within the
Office of the CIO at Ohio State. Moreover he was always a pleasure to
work with -- competent, efficient, and personable in every respect. We
worked together directly on a number projects evaluating and
implementing crucial eLearning technologies at the university, and,
though Tom's agenda was necessarily different than mine, I found that he
was respectful of, engaged, and accommodating of my concerns, all the
while taking time to understand the often difficult technical issues
involved. In short, Tom is a person who is adept at understanding the
various aspects of complex technical problems in order to find a
mutually beneficial path to a solution, even when there are competing
concerns involved. And he is able to do this work with warmth, caring,
and a sense of humor.”
