5. Recommendations
“One of my favorite traits in anyone is fearlessness, and Steven fits that bill. There is no such thing as
impossible, and he is one of the first to roll up his sleeves and immerse himself in the problem solving.
I have witnessed this first-hand during our materials conversion project on the Education Committee.”
Linda Whitesell, lw8215@att.com
“In the role of project champion, Steven Shapiro did an excellent job of mentoring three student interns
from the Network Operations Development Program over a time period of approximately six months…
Steven’s method of mentoring definitely helped the interns build confidence, feel valued, and gain
good insight on being part of a project team at AT&T.” Adrian Leyva, al6464@att.com
