Aspirations for the current project

As the instructor, Gary has always been excited about a combination of formal training and apprenticeship. As the recruiter, Gary has always experienced difficulties to find qualified candidates for his major clients such a venture capital group, angel investor, and startups. To address this discrepancy, Gary is managing CNM Cloud Project. Gary lists his entrepreneurial spirit, thinking "outside the box," and finding "a way to get it done" as his strongest abilities.
