“Cory is one of those rare individuals who can flourish in ambiguity and create structure in chaos. He has a great combination of business acumen and people skills that allows him to set direction and influence others without authority. I saw him do this repeatedly in his role as Int'l Account Manager, where he was called upon to build a team of his own and motivate cross functionally. It was a pleasure working with Cory.” — VP Marketing
