About the Author
Brian Hanes, Senior Consultant
Brian Hanes is a Senior Consultant for BCS ProSoft with ten years experience working with our clients. Though he now specializes in Sage Abra HRMS and Crystal Reports, Brian started with BCS as a Support Technician, so it is fair to say that he’s “seen it all!” Brian enjoys the challenge of helping his clients squeeze more value out of their software.
The father of two wonderful children, Brian enjoys spending time outdoors with them. He just taught his daughter to ride her bike without training wheels (woohoo!) and Brian and the kids can be found many weekends or evenings riding their skateboards in one of the wonderful San Antonio parks.
Brian and his girlfriend Cindy live near Downtown San Antonio and on weekends, they enjoy walking down to the new Pearl Brewery District and taking in the Farmer’s Market and a leisurely breakfast.
