To Whom It May Concern

Letter of recommendation to AOAC Official Methods Board for Dr Brendon D Gill

It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Brendon Gill to Official Methods Board (OMB) with AOAC International.

Brendon and I work together at various AOAC International activities like SPIFAN and we are members of New Zealand International Review Group (IRG) for ISO / IDF Technical Committee 34, Working Group 14 (TC 34 / WG 14) for vitamins and other nutrients. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Brendon, and came to know him as a truly valuable asset to absolutely any team. He is honest, dependable and incredibly hard- working. Brendon’s knowledge of analytical chemistry and expertise in method development is a huge advantage to the entire industry. Along with his undeniable talent, Brendon has always been an absolute joy to work with. He is a true team player, and always manages to foster positive discussions and bring the best out of technical forums. Without a doubt, I confidently recommend Brendon to join OMB team at AOAC International. As a dedicated and knowledgeable person, I know that he will be a beneficial addition to the activity.

Please feel free to contact me should you like to discuss it further. I would be happy to expand on my recommendation.

Yours sincerely,

Dr George Joseph PhD | Technical Manager DDI +64 9 626 8237 | Mobile +64 21 364412
