of benefiting from his consulting services and

assistance. Merritt is innovative, hard-work-

“There is no project to large or too small for

Merritt. He is a professional with truly innova-

tive ideas. I met him through work. We

worked well together and in the process

ended up as great friends. I hope someday,

we will get the opportunity to work together

again. He is definitely an asset to any com-

pany. Mr. Wiley is a work-a-holic, not because

he has to be, but because he enjoys it. He is a

problem solver and no task is to large or

small. The end result is always a smooth tran-

sition to greatness. Any company would be

lucky to have him on their side.”

“Working and communicating with Meritt is

always a pleasure, as his comments are to the

point and his knowledge extensive. He is one

of those persons who has a clear view of how

things should be done. This is a trait that is

one of the most, if not the most, important in

doing business.”

Lisa Cox

Director of Logistics, Air & Sea International

“Merritt and I have known each other for over

twenty years. In that time I have also had the

opportunity to work with him on various

projects. I have found him to be very person-

able, organized and able to motivate his staff

to get the work or project completed in a

timely manner. His customers are always

happy with the work and/or services that

Merritt provides.”

Christian Klaumann

International Project Coordinator, Integra

International

“Merritt Wiley is a serious professional I had

the honor to work for and learn from while at

Integra International. Under his direction,

Merritt built-up a team and company that spe-

cialized in serving major international corpo-

rations with difficult trade and logistics

projects in North America, Europe, Asia,

Australia, Africa and Latin America. It was fun

working with Mr. Wiley because no matter

what the challenge he always analyzed the

options, made sensible decisions and executed

programs which satisfied all legal, logistical

and financial criterion. Further, I was (and still

am) amazed by the number of long lasting

working friendships he has all over the world.

These global working friendships (from CEO's

to government officials to all sorts of opera-

tions personnel) are based on mutual respect,

honesty, accomplishment and a genuine com-

passion for all points of view. In short, he gets

things done (when others would give up), and

builds long-lasting camaraderie at the same

time. Any organization would be proud to

have him as a member of their team.”

“Merritt's in depth knowledge of the freight &

customs industry made him an invaluable

asset during his tenure with Schenker. His at-

tention to details in a time sensitive industry

lead him to land key accounts that drove up

gross margin growth, maintained a harmo-

nious team environment and provided a posi-

tive NIAT result. Merritt continues to thrive in

the transportation industry and I give him

high regards for the support that he provided

to me during and after our days at Schenker.”

Brent Krelle

Director of Airfreight, DHL Global and Kuehne

& Nagel

“I worked with Merritt at Danzas Corporation,

as it was known at the time, in the mid-to-late

'90's. Merritt was a senior level executive fo-

cused primarily on imports, specifically cus-

tom house brokerage and sales. He managed

the import department, and was responsible

for acquiring a number of top level accounts,

including Porsche AG and Genentech, among

others. He was also responsible for managing

all aspects of the import dept. Merritt is very

honest and straight-forward, and, combined

with his business savvy and his selling skills,

would make for a tremendous asset for any

company involved with logistics and global

supply chains.”

Merritt. Not only is Merritt good at what he

project. It is clear to me as I hope it is to you

would contribute greatly to any project or

“Working for Merritt was truly one of the best

working relationships I have experienced. His

exceptional organizational skills, along with

his patience, thorough approach to

projects/challenges made working for him a

breeze. Merritt is the utter definition of pro-

fessionalism and also a great writer.”

Benjamin Guez

Talent Director, York Street Properties

“More than just writing a recommendation for

Merritt Wiley, I would like to sincerely thank

him for the assistance, guidance and inspira-

tion he has generously given me on many oc-

casions from 2007 until today. While Merritt is

both experienced and dedicated towards

whatever task is at hand, he is also endowed

with patience and compassion. During my

studies and time working in different fields, I

have rarely been so fortunate as to meet a

person with such strong professional and

human qualities. While working with him at

York Street Properties (I interviewed and rec-

ommended him for hire), I have seen Merritt

give himself to a project's success above and

beyond of what was expected of him while

bringing wisdom and fresh initiative during

somewhat difficult circumstances. One can

count on Merritt's expertise and leadership to

not only overcome any problem but to study

the experience and make long term improve-

ments. Merritt has the unique ability to be

both a demanding and detail-oriented supervi-

sor and a trusted friend. It would be a great

fortune for any organization to have Merritt as

part of their team.”

Paula Sutherlin

President, Quicksilver Construction

“Merritt is one of the most organized and pro-

fessional people I have ever had the pleasure

of working with. He has an ability to see the

"big picture" and always move towards its ob-

jectives, while at the same time keep track of

(and manage) details in dozens of projects si-

multaneously. Merritt's ability to overcome

legal, logistical, procurement, financial, labor

and customer services challenges is nothing

short of awe-inspiring. I would recommend

and work with him again anytime, anyplace.”

Maria Victoria Martinez

President, MVM Enterprises

“It was, and is, a great experience working

and learning with Merritt. He is knowledge-

able and patient; takes into account each per-

son's personality when he assists. His skills as

a manager, technical support and trainer, are

exceptional. We started as a great business

associates and colleagues, and now have a

great friendship.”

Lori Bucarey

“Merritt is a pleasure to work with in many re-

gards. He brings objectivity, logic and direc-

tion to every project we ever worked on

together. His strategies and solutions are

grounded in fact, reason, careful analysis and

a review of the best outcomes possible. While

his recommendations and decisions were not

always unanimously accepted by the team and

vendors, he always listened to different ideas

with respect, consideration, an open-mind and

a willingness to be flexible. His insights, un-

derstanding and undeniable ability to achieve

objectives makes me proud to have worked

with him and pleased to recommend him.”

Matt Menashe President, Menashe Marketing 5 STARS - "Merritt is VERY knowledgeable about his craft, and I think this was the most I was able to get out of any contractor I have hired before ($500k spend history on UpWork) - I am looking forward to working with him again, when we expand our international operations." Mike Dresher President, JogAlong LLC 5 STARS - “Many of us come to Upwork with what we see as a specific task. In many cases, we get a specific answer based on the limited criteria we provide. In this case, with Merritt, our task received excellent microanalysis, but in addition, he considers the macro view providing insight into whether the task outlined is the right one, or can be adequately answered without first making sure the fundamentals of your plan are adequate. Excellent. Highly recommended.” Thomas Sechehaye CEO. Conojo Software LLC 5 STARS - "Merritt is extremely knowledgeable and was very helpful to troubleshoot issues in our business development." Thaddaeus Shaw Founder & CEO, TurboStars Group LLC 5 STARS - “Mentorship involves a tailored fit. Finding someone who understands yourself and your vision is important. Working with Merritt became a meaningful connection which exceeded all expectations. Equipped with seemingly infinite dimensions of global experience, providing an invaluable boost to the project. Open minded about transforming brainstorms into realities. Always communicating professionally, without cynicism, is another trait I appreciate about Merritt. Bringing confidence, not arrogance. Likely the by- product of a relentless work ethic combined with the most formidable intellect I’ve ever encountered. Discovering Merritt’s style is an experience I’d recommend to anyone seeking clarity.” Lloyd Mellon President, RBC International Trade, London 5 STARS - "Very professional consultant, finish projects on time, someone who gets the job done thoroughly." Lim Ming Yan President and CEO, CapitaLand, Singapore 5 STARS - “Merritt's work was of an exemplary standard, I think it will be difficult to work with any other contractors after seeing the standard of work that he has provided! He is incredibly intelligent, articulate and his work shows a meticulous attention to detail." Jenny Ramgoolie President, Consulting Angels 5 STARS - "Merritt is an incredibly skilled and intelligent individual who completed the task at hand to a standard that exceeded my own expectations. His written English, presentation and research skills are excellent. It was clear to see how much effort and attention to detail went into the project that he completed for me. I would highly recommend Merritt to anyone who was considering hiring him and I will definitely be working with him again in the very near future." Corey Hampton President, Mid-South Nutrition, Inc. 5 STARS - “Merritt was a pleasure to work with. He is a very resourceful and knowledgeable person.

I have hired hundreds of people, spent over a million dollars on Odesk/UpWork and this was my favorite hire thus far. Definitely a 10 of 10 (or 5 of 5 in UpWork lingo)” Andy Ramgoolie CEO, Aandco Healthcare, Ltd, Trinidad 5 STARS - “Merritt is professional at what he does and completes projects in the face of demanding time frames. Excellent communicator who gets the job done. We will continue to work with him on all future projects - No Regrets!” Rice Powell CEO & Chairman, Fresenius Medical, GmbH 5 STARS - “Merritt provided excellent professional advice in a timely manner.
