"Having worked with David over many years, I've benefited greatly from the uncommon mix of skills that he brings to the table. He combines a focus, curiosity and breadth of experience that make him an extremely capable technologist, with the interpersonal skills, process knowledge and commercial sense that allow him to deliver strong business value beyond the realm of the technical. Many would claim to possess these attributes, but few actually do: he is, in my view, one of those few. I don't know if I'll get the opportunity to work with him again but should such an opportunity present itself I would not hesitate to take it."

"I'd highly recommend David. His knowledge and expertise coupled with his great communication skills have been invaluable to us. His deep understanding of web technologies and client side solutions have provided us with a model to take forward across all of our other systems. He was able to take complex requirements and provide a rich real-time interface beyond what was expected whilst also addressing performance concerns. David was also tasked with workshops to discuss points directly with the client and helped ensure the success of the project. Dealing with difficult clients he was able to manage the process smoothly and provide clear updates on progress and always hit deadlines. I would definitely recommend David and hope to work with him again in the future."

"I have a high regard for David – he worked for me leading several developments during a three year period. Initially taken on as a senior developer/architect he quickly showed his ability to reliably manage projects and deliver results. I was able to use David for challenging enterprise solutions as well as a quick win. From the get go I could leave him to lead discussions with stake holders at all levels, architect a solution, develop, project manage, test, implement and hand over the solution to production. A “one stop shop/fire and forget” guy who gave me time rather than stole it. David knew exactly when to involve me with technical/key strategic decisions and when to take the initiative and make decisions himself. He is focused on results, flexible, and built a great rapport with users because they could understand him and he is a nice person to work with. He has an extensive understanding of technologies both old and new is a rare find."

"David was excellent on the Q Pricing Project, where he joined as a contract .Net/C# developer and later became the technical lead and Scrum Master. He was experienced and knowledgeable in the full application lifecycle and the use of C#/TFS/SQL/Microsoft technologies, but he always sought out the true meaning/need of what was being requested and advised how best to approach it. His professional yet friendly style garnered respect from all other team members and his tenacity and patience were great qualities that helped the project to be successful. If I ever had a need for these skills in future, David would be my first call. Highly recommended."
