Leo Costello BPTech Medical Systems Recommendation
1. Dear Hiring Manager,
I have known Dan Hart both professionally and personally for over four years. I am electronics
and software engineer, and have been designing medical Instrumentation for 20 years. I've
worked with dozens of engineers at companies such as GE Healthcare and Philips Medical, and
Dan ranks up there with the smartest of them.
Dan worked for me at BPTech Medical Systems as our Marketing Director and as an
Engineering Assistant. As an Engineering Assistant, he was helpful with research, materials
procurement, liaised with vendors, and used several software programs to assist in making
progress with our projects.
As Marketing Director, he researched current and future trends in the segment of the Medical
industry we would target. Dan developed a Marketing and Content Distribution roadmap for
future utilization.
Dan has an encyclopedic memory, knowledge of a broad range of topics, extraordinary
communications skills (verbal and written) and a wealth of in-depth experience in a diverse
range of technologies. His technical expertise includes smartphones, notebook PCs,
Windows/Linux, Web analytics and office PC applications. For example, Dan is expert at using
software applications for optimizing a PC's performance, and for recovering seemingly lost data.
He has also set up office computer systems for small businesses such as Law firms. Dan is a
"quick study," rapidly coming up to speed in whatever new subject area is needed. In short, Dan
is exceptionally intelligent, well-spoken, technologically-savvy and adaptable.
Sincerely,
Leo F. Costello Jr. MSEE, MSBME
