Joe Ratay hired Elliott as an IT Consultant at Dick's Sporting Goods
"Elliott's work at our company spanned
deeply technical work intended for an IT-only audience,
to end-user references that were intended for a very broad audience.
In all cases, the work was useful, accurate, and ready to be put to use.
Great results, good value, and on time."
(March, 2010)
Bryce Walat worked directly with Elliott at UPMC Information Security Group
"Elliott and I worked on end user documentation for
UPMC's Identity Management System,
specifically 'Getting Started' and 'What To Do If...' guides.
Elliott brought a strong work ethic and solid skill set to bear on this effort.
He offered a much-needed 'sanity check' to my work, and I did the same for him.
We put together a solid process to make sure that the work was completed
on schedule and to high quality standards.
I'd welcome the chance to work with Elliott again."
(October, 2007)
Nancy Conte managed Elliott indirectly at Acclamation Systems, Inc.
"Elliott was a very talented technical writer.
I had asked him for help on several occasions to help me with
a recruiting brochure.
He was very helpful and very knowledgeable.
While he worked at Acclamation Systems,
we received several letters praising his work.
I think that he would be a valuable asset to any business."
