Having worked with Darren for two years, I've been impressed by his disciplined scheduling and clarity which has ensured that tasks are completed on time and as promised. He has the ability to use his depth knowledge of databases and adapt their implementation to a wide variety of client requests. The combination of dependability and adaptability are something I've rarely seen and makes Darren stand out from the crowd.

Darren is a results-driven and focused Manager, with a great deal of knowledge and experience of Data Migrations. His working style is highly organised and calm and he considers all possible scenarios in planning the work to be done. I worked with Darren on a number of migrations and was impressed by his quiet determination to get the job done.
