What Customers Have Said about Ron

 "We wish to add you to our list of rocket scientists!"  "We will only award this project to [multinational consulting firm] if Ron Salvador oversees the project."  "One of the best database consultants in the country."  "...great help to me and my section over the past few years. I can't say thanks enough times to express how much I appreciated you sharing your time and experiences with us."  "Whether the question/problem was trouble shooting or making system changes I knew I could always count on your patience and support. You have been a tremendous asset to the department in a very big way."  "My company has not seen this high level of quality work in many years."  "We are going to pay for you to learn this technology because we know that it will be quicker for you to learn it, than for us to hire a contractor already experienced with it.
