“Dave worked for me at Simple as our Senior Director of Information Security. Dave has it all: subject matter expert, leader, team player and he gets things done. In the challenging space of Info Sec, Dave was responsible for implementing things that were necessary but not always popular. Despite this, he achieved rock star status among direct reports, peers and leadership. I would welcome the chance to work with Dave again. ”
