I had the pleasure of working with John to provide IT training services to his team while at PPL. He is one of the nicest and fairest people I’ve worked with in my 20+ years in the industry. He always strived to support his staff in every way possible, even when budgets were tight.

Phil Nelson

Owner & Managing Member at Global Franchise Consultants

I worked with John on transitioning from Corporate America to business ownership and some of the attributes that I found impressive were his leadership and communication skills. He has many attributes that a potential franchise partner would consider “ideal” and we had several to choose from. What really stood out to me though was his drive and passion for helping others succeed. He has a knack for identifying your natural gifts and then helping you realize your goals. I have no doubt that he will make a positive impact in many people’s lives in his new endeavor.
