Hello. My name is Chris Ruesch and I am a workaholic... That’s right I said it. The good news is this workaholic is about to make you and your organization look good! How is that you ask? I'll tell you. I have spent my career working in various different industries which have helped me to hone in my skills and become “The man of many trades”. You need some graphic design work done? I’m on it. How about setting up a wireless network? I’m your guy. Oh, you need some motor work done on your car and to close a few high-profile sales? Let me grab my tools and bluetooth earpiece and consider it done!
