"It is not often that one comes across a young person of Jeff's caliber. Jeff served as my special assistant, and I commend his loyalty, enthusiasm, responsiveness, and overall commitment to perform with excellence. He is personable and is held in high regard by his peers in Washington and abroad."

- Governor Bill Richardson, Former United States Secretary of Energy and United States Ambassador to the United Nations

"Appreciate the great job Jeff is doing to single handedly change the mindset of our nation and athletes."

- General Barry McCaffrey, Former Director of The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy

"Jeff was challenged with many responsibilities including the logistical coordination of Presidential events and worked daily with many constituency groups in an environment where patience and professionalism were very important. Jeff is an intelligent and hardworking person who is not afraid to take on responsibility and demonstrated a great deal of poise, an engaging personality, and a strong desire to help people. He will be an asset to any institution.

- Craig Gardenswartz, White House Office of Public Liaison

"Jeff is a personable, organized individual who fit in extremely well with our team approach to servicing clients. His attitude, focus, and strong determination to succeed will continue to guide him in achieving goals."

- Thomas P. O'Neill III

"Jeff was tasked with building a new national government program from the ground up with very little resources- a difficult task to say the least. Jeff was instrumental in creating the Initiative and putting it into the public eye. Perhaps the best benchmark of Jeff's abilities is that General McCaffrey still invokes Jeff's example when talking to young employees to show what a dedicated young person can achieve."

- Robert Housman, Former Director of Strategy, The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy.

" I have appreciated Jeff's hard work, commitment, and dedication to supporting the President's National Drug Control Strategy and his development and implementation of the White House Athletic Initiative Against Drugs. Jeff should be proud that his efforts have made a positive difference in the lives of untold American citizens."

- John F. Lindsay, Former Staff Director, The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy.

"I would like to personally acknowledge Mr. Jeffrey Gulko for his dedication and hard work while providing analytic support to the Africa account, as well as editorial support to several areas of responsibility (AORs) ensuring data integrity prior to release of Department of State's annual publication, Country Reports on Terrorism to the National Counter-Terrorism Center website."
