• I really appreciate the positive team environment you've created as our manager. Our team has great morale, and I think that's due to your leadership style, which encourages communication and makes everyone feel valued. You're always there, willing to listen, and do a great job recognizing individual contributions, which in my opinion, boosts motivation. I'm having trouble thinking of any major areas for improvement as you're doing a great job serving the team's needs.

• Andrew's work and dedication to his new program has been noticeable and has made the difference in ensuring the success of his team and overall PBCS goals. Having inherited a new team at the start of the year, Andrew quickly got everyone involved in various projects, getting the team back on track after previous poor programmatic performances. Andrew has also established a great culture among team members, having scheduled a few outside work activities to increase team bonding.
• Luke Yanoshak, Systems Engineer Asc Dec 18, 2024
• Gaining Andrew as manager has been a blessing for me and my team this year. Not only does Andrew effectively portray important characteristics and skills a leader should have (like creative problem-solving, programmatic decision making, and successful teaming), a rare blend of both short and long-term programmatic and personal goals), but his genuine kindness and passion for his team kindles a fire in his employees that keeps us enthusiastic. He's truly a talented, skillful, and wonderful boss.

• Andrew has been an exceptional IPT lead for the Inerts team. He demonstrates strong and effective leadership by building relationships with each member of the IPT team and helping everyone understand the importance of their role. He has a strong grasp on the many additive manufacturing processes, and can translate highly complex technical issues in a clear & concise way to non-technical folks. Andrew has earned the respect of his entire team and I am very thankful to have him as a teammate.
