Recommendations

David has an exceptional work ethic combined with a strong sense of responsibility. He works with passion and encourages his co-workers to do the same. He elevates the performance of those around him.

I worked as a colleague of David at Harwood for a couple of years. He managed the entire Notes environment at that time. Since leaving Harwood, I have performed consulting and service work for Harwood - working with David to resolve IT related infrastructure issues. He currently maintains a large multi-national network with demanding employees.
