David Edson is a Chief Executive Officer at Vizfirst. They is proficient in Doric. Colleagues describe them as "I have had the privilege of working with Dave Edson as my go-to partner consultant for the past four years as a Solution Specialist at Microsoft covering Visio and Project in the NW. From a technical perspective there is absolutely no one on the planet who has a deeper, more robust knowledge of Visio as a diagramming solution and development platform than Dave. His passion for solving problems with Visio is unprecedented, and his encyclopedic knowledge of all of the many capabilities and use-cases of Visio is inspirational. Dave is a great listener and problem solver, is always happy to jump in and help, has an amazing work ethic, and has a unique skill of bestowing his knowledge to groups of any size and all levels of expertise and proficiency in a way that is clear, concise, easily understandable, and immediately useful, always with a bit of humor thrown is for added accessibility and rapport building. I have attended a great many Visio trainings with Dave as the instructor, and his end-user reviews have been consistently the highest scores possible. My favorite customer quote from one of Dave’s trainings was “I learned more in the first 5 minutes of Dave’s training than the last 5 years of trying to figure out Visio on my own”. It has been a genuine pleasure to have worked with Dave Edson, and I would recommend his consulting and training services with the highest of accolades. "
