Dan has a rare combination of being both strategically forward-thinking while also being practical and realistic, and has leveraged these two abilities to great effect and with great success. He is always calm, level-headed, and rational in his decision-making. Dan is an excellent asset to any team, project, program, or department. He has my highest recommendation.", and "While at Depuy, Ive had the pleasure of reporting to Dan on multiple occasions. As a people manager Dan is amazing, he is focused on developing his people, and making sure that he takes any action possible to help them achieve their career goals. He is an advocate for his employees and is constantly looking for opportunities that could align with his employees gaps and interests. Even after I no longer directly reported to him, he continued to advocate for me and be a voice for me regarding opportunities and my wanted path. As a technical leader, he is the perfect balance of in the weeds, and allowing his employees to make decisions for themselves. Dan is always willing to help problem solve, but does this in a way that enables his team to learn and take action on their own. He effectively asks questions that guide, without requiring him to fully take the reigns, making him a very efficient leader. In addition to this Dan has a knack for strategy and innovating, he is always working on something to develop a new way of doing things in the OR, making small scale prototypes and vetting things from a minimum viability perspective. In this process he does a great job including young engineers, encouraging them to learn the basics of innovation and brainstorming. He is a great mentor, leader, and innovator, and I cannot recommend him highly enough."
