CRAIG CECIL - Key Persons


Jaclyn Urlahs

Job Titles:
  • UX Designer / Technical Lead at the Social Security Administration
Craig is, by far, the best mentor and technical lead I have worked with. His knowledge base and experience, in all aspects of front-end engineering far exceed those of his fellow colleagues. Craig is routinely used as a knowledgeable resource to those on the application teams throughout the Social Security Administration organization. He consistently strives to provide improvements and enhancements to the already top-notch quality products he produces for the customer - going above and beyond what is expected of him. I recognize and respect him as an expert and a leader in his field - one that you should follow, if you can keep up with him that is.

Craig's professional values are exemplary. He not only models his values, he shows others on a daily basis how to do the same. His work ethic is hard to believe, and he is able to accomplish more in one day than most people over the course of a week. Craig's imagination is one of his strengths, and he is very capable of identifying a problem, thinking of various solutions, and then working with other team members in identifying the best solution and then acting on it.

Scott Taylor

Job Titles:
  • Financial Advisor at Mass Mutual
Craig's passion is working out, he has routinely followed a strict regime for over 30 years, and the results are apparent. I trained with Craig upon graduating from college. At the time, my muscles were depleted from an intense season of wrestling and cutting weight. In the three years following that, I trained with Craig and achieved my highest level of fitness and muscle mass. I recommend Craig and his book, Supermen, to anyone who needs guidance at the gym, especially for "ex" athletes looking to recapture their former physical self.
