Joe Wheaton: "Tom is personable, knowledgeable, and a patient instructor."

“It is my pleasure to recommend Tom. I have worked with Tom for over 10 years on many technology projects. I believe I first met him when we were training to be be WebCT (later bought by Blackboard) trainers. We subsequently worked together on many technology projects. Tom has helped me many times in the solving of a thorny tech program, most recently in our new course management system, called Carmen. Tom is personable, knowledgeable, and a patient instructor. Many people seek technology help after many frustrating attempts to solve a problem, so they arrive at the help desk frustrated and, sometimes, angry. Tom can diffuse such situations though a combination of his personality, his obvious concern and willingness to help, and his deep and thorough knowledge of technology coupled with the ability to explain complex problems in easy to understand terms. I recommend Tom very highly and without hesitation.”
