J. D. Powell is a professional in their field. Colleagues describe them as "I have worked with JD in both an Engineering and a Leadership role for 10+ years. He was equally strong in a technical capacity working on large complex managed opportunities as he was managing a team of pre-sales resources. His team was asked to change directions often over the last few years and JD was able to rally himself and his troops to successfully engage in new corporate initiatives." and "I had the pleasure of working for J.D. at CenturyLink. His management skills are very thought out, well placed with the intent to nurture and grow his team. When needed he is always willing to extend a hand and help where help is needed. Although I was not on his team for an extended time he has earned my respect and the respect of others. I would welcome the opportunity to work for him again. I would recommend him to any company with a need for a solid Solutions Engineer or Engineering Manager. "
