What they say about me...
“Glen was by far the best IT Security VP I know. Been working for 35 years in sales and operations. Seen the tech industry and fortune 500 change from no IT, to IT support to IT security. Multiple transitions. Normally the IT side of the business was a bottleneck and sometimes deal killers. Not with Glen running the ship. This guy was the best troubleshooter and most proactive person I know. No one comes close to Glen as far as his sense of urgency, can do attitude, if he didn’t have the answer; he’d go find it, make it happen, communication skills, resolve the problems now, no time to sleep attitude, and a super man and very personable. We are super blessed to have Glen on our team and supporting our business. Wherever I go, I’d hire Glen in a minute. Highly, highly recommend Glen.”

Vice President, Sales“I first met Glen in 1999 when he joined the desktop support team at McREL International. Almost immediately he moved into the organization’s lead IT position as Director of Technology.
As Executive Vice President, I was responsible for providing oversight and guidance to the technology department. When our Director of Technology resigned, I quickly developed and posted a job description to fill the vacancy. Late one afternoon with the posting in hand, Glen came to my office to make a case for making him the new IT Director, even though he had only been with us a few months. Impressed with his passion and confidence, I finally agreed to put him in the lead role on a temporary basis with the understanding that we would reexamine that arrangement after 6 months. I supervised Glen, our new Director of Technology, over the next 12 years.
The technology team was charged with supporting the equipment and training needs of our administrative, research, and service staff, as well as meeting the technology requirements of our contracts with federal and state education agencies. Glen never disappointed. He and his team kept the organization abreast of the latest developments in technology and continually helped the staff apply them appropriately in the field.
Glen is a true lifelong learner. He is a pleasure to work with and is adept at balancing the needs of an organization with the needs of its individual staff members. He is a good listener who makes him a great problem-solver who understands the importance of timelines and deadlines. Glen led the technology team by example, and with confidence and fairness, he created a well-rounded team that worked together to achieve timely results.
Now, five years after both of us have moved on from McREL, Glen and I continue to meet up a few times a year to catch up a bit. The conversation always turns to emerging technologies and the latest trends and I still find myself seeking his technology advice and insights. Once again Glen never disappoints!”
