I’m simply ecstatic to join a group that is so passionate about doing work that truly matters for businesses that are making a difference. The ability to dream up the next big idea and then turn around and have the technical skills to bring it to life … that’s rare. But T2 is loaded with individuals that are both thinkers and doers. That’s why I think they are poised to define for the industry what the new model production house looks like. ”
