        2 Top qualities: Great results and high integrity. I had the pleasure to work with Abraham for 2 years at ABN Amro Bank. Abraham is one of the best Project Managers and Business Analysts I have worked with in a long time. He is detailed oriented, client focused; people savvy, and knows how to move a project during the critical times. What makes Abraham unique is his ability to see the big picture while managing in a challenging environment. Abraham’s command of business knowledge, project management skills, strong work ethic and ability to repeatedly deliver tough projects on time, under budget and as per business’ requirements make Abraham stand apart from the crowd. I hope to have the opportunity to work with Abraham in the future.
