From Our Clients & Partners

Angel was my program manager for the design, construction and operation of a coffee kiosk, one of the first ever onboard an aircraft carrier. With Angel’s superb program management skills and strong leadership, we were able to get the coffee kiosk set up, volunteer crew members trained as baristas, and the logistics set up for a seven month deployment in only three weeks! Amazing feat! Further, the kiosk was such a hit with the crew that the operation generated over $30,000 the first month of deployment and realized a positive return on investment in just two and a half months! Angel created a place on the ship where crew members could go to relax and feel as though they had escaped from the ship for awhile.

Angel also took the lead in preparing over 350 staterooms and Officer living areas for a critical Navy inspection. Angel expertly collaborated with over 50 senior officers onboard to develop a schedule that ensured all work was completed on time within budget. As a result of his impressive work and program management skills, our ship received a score of outstanding – one of the few ships to receive such a high rating. Angel was personally commended by the senior inspector.

Angel completed these programs all while he was running out pay and personnel services department on the ship, ensuring over 5000 crew members were paid accurately their regular pay, allowances, and travel.

One of a kind, highly energetic visionary and exceptional professional.

As a member of the Board of Directors for the Veterans Leadership Council, I have personally observed the tremendous impact Angel has had on our organization through his positions as Co-President and Director of Community Outreach. During his tenure, paid, membership tripled and brand recognition spread to over 650 veteran leaders throughout Chicago.

He has demonstrated superb leadership and refined management skills, while also displaying an indefatigable work ethic. Additionally, his skilled understanding of human resource issues has been an added bonus.

I would highly recommend Angel as a business consultant, or for any HR or other corporate leadership position.

“When you first meet Angel Torres, the first thoughts that come to mind are trustworthy and authentic. Angel’s work in the veteran space has been truly groundbreaking. His high energy level, passion for supporting and helping veterans in business is contagious.  As the Co-President of the Veteran Leadership Council (VLC), he drove the growth of membership and partner engagement exponentially not just in Chicago but throughout the United States.

He mentioned to me that he was starting his company and how they approach veteran engagement as a business partner.  I was absolutely blown away at what a great idea this was and how he was the perfect person to launch such an endeavor.  His extensive graduate education which includes an Executive MBA coupled with 27 years of human resources experience are a natural fit to lead this company.  Angel possesses a unique knowledge of how to tie diversity initiatives to the business strategy.  I have absolute confidence in his ability, passion and drive to support his client’s veteran employment goals.”
