TESTIMONIALS
What our customers say about us
NASA reviewers ... had significant concerns with regard to our spacecraft’s ability to properly control the antennas on orbit. I’m happy to report that as a result of Richard’s careful and expert analysis, we were able to significantly alleviate our customer’s concerns and retire what was a key risk from further consideration.
Tim Neilsen
SunRISE Program Manager, SDL
Richard ... commands a wealth of technical knowledge and experience to draw from. ... Given a set of requirements he can quickly generate a solution path, determine qualitative and quantitative evaluation metrics, create models, and validate them against known responses. .. I warmly recommend him.
Ryan Martineau
Systems Engineer, SDL
Richard is a highly talented and competent engineer. He has one of the brightest and quickest minds I've seen. He also brings energy, enthusiasm, a can-do attitude and a strong work ethic to the table. These qualities make him great to work with!
