I want you to know you are about to hire an astute and talented individual. Vaughn McGrath was in our employ for
over a year’s time and in that time we had Vaughn perform several tasks which he handled with both enthusiasm and a commitment to high quality.

In the beginning of his employ we had Vaughn working on several programs that he was experienced with; QuarkXPress, PhotoShop, Illustrator, MS-Word, and MS-Excel. But almost immediately we asked Vaughn to learn several new programs which he did with astonishing speed. The accomplishment of adapting within a few week’s time made him a valuable player.

Vaughn’s willingness to work and to take on new directions was definitely an attribute to his long tenure with us. Along with his unique talent he also was extremely accommodating; as we were diving into creating a corporate-wide Internet and he started working in something he had never done before - HTML. Vaughn’s ability to quickly learn and comprehend new technologies helped us immensely. He also was intricately involved in working in a specific viewer program for a CD library that we created. A project that he ended up co-managing.

And how about his illustration talents? What can I say? Having an illustrator right on-board to take over projects needing immediate icons and interpretations of text in-house was fantastic! He did an excellent job on some PhotoShop illustrations that had to go to a wide audience and he did a great job of following the client’s concerns and needs.

I highly recommend Vaughn as becoming an asset to any department or firm that may have apprehensions about fulfilling their needs with an unknown talent. You will find he is an especially competent individual.

Sincerely,
