Chris and I worked together on the Process Improvement team supporting Property and Casualty Claims at State Farm. Chris has an unrivaled passion for data analytics. His forward-thinking ideas for collecting large sample sizes of data and breaking it down into usable information was the backbone of success for a number of projects. Chris's talent and knowledge sharing with the use of text mining and process mining really opened up my eyes to the capabilities of these tools. Chris is no doubt one of the most reliable people I have ever worked with. His advanced Excel and data analytic skills is and will be a valuable addition to any team interested in making data driven decisions in any number of different work environments.

Chris is one of the most analytical and creative people I have had the opportunity to work with. He immediately became the technological leader on our team through his implementation of text analytics, process mining, and Hadoop. His ability to quickly access data, utilize multifaceted analytical techniques, and create visualizations made him the go-to resource on our team. He is an excellent team member and peer leader. His natural abilities and work ethic will make him a valued resource.

"Very efficient" is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Chris, in regards to creating structured data for analysis from unstructured input text. The descriptive analytics he developed enabled many project teams to tell the story of what happened or what was happening as a baseline for performance improvement and solution development. I have had the pleasure of working closely with Chris, and I was continuously impressed by his ability to handle requests effortlessly and professionally. Chris would be an asset to any team.
