TESTIMONIAL
“Pat is one of those rare professionals who can bring in major sales through his passion for people, together with his innate sense of both the practical and, yes, emotional needs of clients. Too, he always sees the key success points within every project, and gracefully leads the entire company toward achieving them. Yet what makes him truly special is his ability to do all this while grasping technical issues relating to print, data, design and strategy, then working with management, specialists—even shop floor personnel—to see them through. He is a natural magnet for customers, a true leader, plus an all-around great guy to work for and with. I could not recommend him more highly…"
