Testimonials

Savannah Drake Campaign Manager - Weichert for AZ

Managing Steve for about 8 months, I can confidently say that he is a quick learner, a self-starter, and is motivated and passionate about all that he does. Steve is a fierce advocate for those who need it and will not stop working until a job gets done correctly. He receives constructive criticism very well and is always open to new challenges. I am thankful that I got the opportunity to work with Steve!

Bill Conati VP of Operations at Arizona Care Network

Steve has a broad knowledge of healthcare systems, statistical analysis, and process improvement. Steve is very comfortable leading complex initiatives and participating within a team. His positive, forward thinking, attitude combined with an ability to see the forest from the trees makes Steve an ideal source for getting strategic work completed.

Chris Martinelli Senior Systems Administrator

Steve is reliable and dedicated. He is able to come up with creative solutions to any issues that arise. He is very friendly and works well with others. He would be an asset to any company.

Colleen Fonte

Magnificent skill set both technically and interpersonal. Dedicated and dependable. Works very well under pressure. Meets tight and always changing deadlines. Well respected within the Organization. Would hire him again if the opportunity arose.

Debbie Bobby Operations and Customer Experience Professional (Retired)

Steve has keen analytic abilities without losing sight of the strategic goal. He has a bent for process and logic and used them skillfully during his tenure in my organization. Steve repeatedly demonstrated the ability to handle virtually anything asked of him. He’s an excellent team member, not only for his valuable contributions, but because his enthusiasm and upbeat perspective creates a positive force within the group. I would highly recommend Steve in whatever opportunity is presented to him and have complete confidence from my experience that he will be successful and will have a very positive impact on the business and people around him.

Dr. David Gross Pediatrician - Gila River Health Care

I’m happy to recommend Steve as a consummate professional. He was an important component of the decision-making and leadership team when I worked with him in a large healthcare organization.

As a physician leader, though I had some good ideas, I lacked the expertise to delve into the numbers, to put my plan into action, and to convey the message to a broader audience. Steve excels in these areas. He was always positive and is a good-natured guy.

He adapts easily to new situations and changes in circumstances; something he had to do often in the organization.

I have no qualms about recommending him for whatever position he is preparing to take on in your organization. He is a professional and quite personable as well, a great combination.

Dr. Kevin Helmuth Optometrist - Gila River Health Care

Steve is a professional in every sense of the word. He has been very helpful in preparing reports for our department. He understands objectives and is able to problem solve to achieve objectives. Although he works with numbers he has exceptional people skills. I highly recommend Steve!
