RECOMMENDATIONS

Dr. Neal Garrett, Ph.D. Professor, UCLA School of Dentistry Research Study Coordinator, West LA VA Medical Center: Carl demonstrated exceptional reliability and professionalism while managing subject interviews, data collection, and clinical documentation. His ability to make participants feel comfortable was critical to our clinical trial success. He is highly skilled, punctual, and communicates effectively with diverse groups. Carl would be an asset to any research or administrative team. Dr. Karen Reue, Ph.D. Professor of Human Genetics and Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA

"Carl was responsible for managing the full scope of business operations for a multi-PI research lab. He handled budget management, procurement, visa coordination, IT system maintenance, and personnel logistics. His communication with international researchers, vendors, and faculty was always professional. Carl's work ethic, adaptability, and technical capability make him an outstanding asset."

Michelle McElroy President, ETR Management and Technical Consulting Recommending:

Technical Documentation Consultant & Community Outreach Advisor:

"I originally met Carl in 1991 at Northrop Aircraft where I worked as an Engineering Assistant and he served as a Corporate Worker's Compensation Coordinator. We reconnected professionally in 2010 for a municipal solar panel project, where Carl's leadership and precision in developing a technical instruction manual were vital. Carl brings vision, unity, and measurable results to every project. He is committed, loyal, and elevates any team he joins." Mr. Asim Bashir Site Director, INTERLINK Language Centers (EGA/TVTC, Saudi Arabia)

Student Leader, Building Inspection Program:

"Carl exhibited superior technical, interpersonal, and leadership skills as a top student. He was instrumental in student advisory boards and study committees, and his written work elevated program quality. I am confident he will thrive in any technical or leadership environment. Based on my observations as a LA County BEi, LA City Senior BMI, Chief at LAHD and here at PCC - I can easily imagine Mr. Wilson continuing to add value to whatever organization provides an environment for him to thrive!
