Gabe is a fantastic professional and leader, and I am confident that he will excel in any senior leadership or product development role he may take on. I originally hired Gabe to lead industrial design in charge of a very small team focused on product development. While Gabe excelled in that role, he also quickly demonstrated tremendous capability to take on much greater responsibilities and drive broader strategic change at the company.

Gabe made time to help support, grow and challenge my own skills — even though I wasn’t his direct report. I value the dedication and time he spent with me as a peer but also a mentor.

I was always impressed with Gabe’s work. His background and understanding of a broad range of manufacturing technologies meant that his designs not only looked good but always met the functional product requirements and were easily manufacturable.
