Rob Evans’s Summary
I rise to every occasion and get the job done. It doesn't matter what job I hold or whether I am working as an individual in a team or as a manager. I am constantly improving myself and I self educate. I never stop learning. I do make mistakes I am not perfect but I learn from my mistakes and better myself. The glass is always half full in my opinion, and my outlook can be summed up by the story of the tiger and the strawberry. Google it.
Rob Evans’s Specialties:
Business Development; My prior FAE background helped me immensely to sell motherboards because I knew everything about them and how every part of the board functioned.
Project Management. Handling $20M projects from inception to Mass production.
Web Design, SEM/SEO; I design websites not to be pretty to the eye, but to be pretty to Google. This is relevant if you rely on search for business.
