About Us

John Cello Consulting is a client centered firm.

Founded in 1992 in Charlotte, North Carolina, the firm moved to the Upstate area of South Carolina in 1999. Embracing the benefits of a virtual office environment, our employees enjoy the freedom of calling anyplace with high speed internet access the "office."

Though we specialize in serving the southeast region of the United States, our convenient location to the interstate, two national, and several general aviation airports give us a worldwide reach.

Our company methodology is to retain on a long term contract basis the best talent available nationwide. All training, management consulting, and project management are done by the in-house staff.

We consult with the psychologists and LPCs at the Easley Counseling Center on all of our assessments and training course development so that we can ensure that our findings and training are as accurate as possible. We also have an exclusive agreement to utilize this facility's R.O.P.E.S. course. (View our photo gallery by clicking here)

This methodology affords us the ability to bring exactly the right resources to bear on any given project, keeping the provided solution technically sound and cost effective. Holding to the simple maxim that if the solution isn't the proper one for the client, we will not undertake it, we have developed an unrivaled client loyalty.

As our services are behaviorally based, we have incorporated one of the inkblots from the Rorschach series as part of our company logo.

John Cello, our president and founder, has an incredibly diverse background. After serving in the Air Force, he has held positions as a firefighter\paramedic, a full time sworn law enforcement officer, network engineer, director of information technology operations, and Vice President of Data Services for companies such as Solectron Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Monroe Automotive. This allows him to lend support and advice on a wide range of subjects and applications. John still actively participates in projects, keeping in touch with all the facets of the organization.

Dedicated to community service, John is an active member in the Civil Air Patrol, the official auxiliary of the United States Air Force. John's squadron provides air and ground search and rescue capabilities, as well as youth oriented drug demand reduction and leadership training.
