Subject: Kristian Garcia, exceptional recruiter Recently I retired from 30+ years at BAE Systems and wanted to remain active, although part-time, in the Aerospace industry. The best path for me was Hepco where I was introduced to Ms Garcia. From our first introduction to working at Hepco, she has been a consummate professional. She is extremely talented and exceeded all my expectations. Thank you, Larry

Kristian Garcia was absolutely fantastic. She was the driving force behind Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp receiving a top tier technician. Between her and Tom our profit margin and productivity have surpassed expectations. I am looking forward to doing more business with them in the immediate future.
