For the two years that Dave reported to me as an Orientation Leader, he demonstrated a fantastic work ethic and a well-rounded set of leadership skills. Hard working and exceptionally reliable, he can be trusted to lead projects in a thoughtful, efficient way. His intellect, open-mindedness and critical thinking skills make him stand out as both a colleague and a community leader. I would gladly work with him again, and continue to recruit him as a volunteer whenever possible.
