He's the kind of talented leader that can be effective in communicating with any team, from developers to sales. During my time on Support he was pivotal in helping communicate technical problems and concepts to client facing teams as well as clients. He is warm and welcoming to everyone, direct and concise and an absolute pleasure to work with.", "The awesomeness of a manager is measured not only be their effectiveness in that role, but in how well they enable the growth of the individuals working with them. As a member of two teams Dave has led, I grew as a leader, and contributor, and enjoyed the process. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a person who worked with Dave who would not have similar positive things to say. From his anecdotes to his SQL-wizardry, he is a great one to have on your side.", and "I first had the opportunity to work with Dave at Digital Work, a start up specializing in small business services. We were presented with the task of converting their whole enterprise system from Perl to Java. Through this experience I realized that Dave was someone who not only had an understanding of different programming languages, but also possessed the understanding of methodologies and best practices. Some years later I was in the position to recommend someone to help out our team at The Board of Trade Clearing Corporation. We were looking for someone that could quickly ramp up on the technology and more importantly the business rules of the enterprise system we were architecting. Right away I thought of Dave. Dave provided an immediate positive impact. As expected he was able to understand the business pains and provide solutions in a timely manner."
