“Blair is a guy who can help think about the rubber meets the road in building your business. I met Blair when I was incubating Acquia inside of North Bridge Venture Partners in 2007. Michael Skok introduced us, suggesting that Blair could help me think about what Acquia's strategy & execution plan should be. Michael was right to recommend Blair, who I found to be a great person for me to help me think that through. Since then, I've become more acquainted with him personally, and have grown to appreciate his insight, and his kind delivery of it. He's a joy to know & work with.”

— Jay Batson, Founder of Acquia

“Blair was a valuable resource to Viximo over a short period of time by helping to bring focus to an important effort. We needed to set up a process around customer and account management that would grow our accounts over time. Blair led the formation of the team to do this and set up a process to chart growth. He was a big help who brought value and peace of mind at a critical time!”
