- Testimonials
“I have known Ed for over 25 years and watched his progress as a business leader and catalyst for positive change. Most recently and after Ed sold his business, I am fortunate to have Ed as a colleague working with me with key relationships to build a strong application group for the Chicago-based Notre Dame EMBA. Ed’s success is equally driven by his business IQ, his positive attitude, his communication skill, his fairness, and his ability to forge positive relationships. I know he will serve mediation clients well.”
