Executive Management

When TUSC started to evolve in the early 1990s, a management team was built on the foundation established by company founders Bradley D. Brown, Richard J. Niemiec and Joseph C. Trezzo.

TUSC's executive management team consists of:

Anthony Catalano -- Senior Vice President of Operations
Tony has shared his management and business skills with TUSC since 1993. He provides direction for the company's recruiting segment and Expert Business Solutions practice. Tony has been developing custom Oracle applications utilizing Oracle development tools for more than a decade. He's recognized as an industry leader in Oracle technology and is asked regularly to address numerous Oracle users groups, including OracleWorld, International Oracle Users Group Live! and Midwest Oracle Users Group.

William Lewkow -- Vice President of Business Development
Bill is responsible for expanding TUSC into new markets through a combination of organic growth and leveraging quality and customer satisfaction initatives that further promote the company. He has played a key role at the firm since 1995, including expansion of the Denver office. From 1983 to 1995, Bill worked for Coors Brewing Co., where he held the positions of manager of new development (sales and marketing) and manager of data warehousing. He served on the Rocky Mountain Oracle Users Group board of directors for three years, including the position of treasurer. From 1975-1983, Bill was part of the consulting practice of three management consulting firms, traveling to projects in both the United States and Canada.

Burk Sherva -- Senior Director of Marketing

Throughout his career, Burk has straddled both the technical and non-technical side of information technology. He has more than 20 years of experience, holding management positions in IT, marketing and market research. In a non-consulting environment, Burk previously worked for a large Fortune 100 company (United Airlines), IT-oriented start-up (Covia) and joint venture petroleum company (UniVen). In a consulting environment, he was formerly employed by the Chicago Board of Trade, Argonne National Laboratory, Sara Lee Corp. and R.R. Donnelley & Sons Co.

He also helps advance TUSC by working with leading technology, including object-oriented technology, e-business strategies and the core service area of Oracle Applications. Dave has played a key role in TUSC since 1992. Fifteen years of software development expertise, combined with his knowledge and understanding of TUSC's operations and strategies, allow him to integrate key knowledge management and methodology initiatives into a repeatable new office strategy. He utilizes this strategy to more rapidly instantiate new offices, while continuing to instill character and pride into the new employee base.
