Bio
Josh Parenteau
David worked for me for several years while I was managing a BI team focused on actuarial and service operations. He was an integral part of the development team responsible for the design, build, deployment, and support of key actuarial applications. One of David's true strengths is his ability to work on both front-end and back-end development tasks and is very proficient in both areas. His combination of strong technical skills and a focus on delivering value to his customers makes him a valuable asset on any IT team.

As a SR. PM and Process Engineer with Anthem BC BS Data Warehousing team, I had a diverse set of opportunities to work with David on several occasions. David proved his acumen in a variety of roles. His technical development lent success for several of our efforts by ensuring that the projects came in on time, within scope and with an exceptional level of quality. In addition to David's technical abilities, his capabilities in the area of analysis, requirements definition and technical design allow him to facilitate multiple roles within a matrixed development team. Lastly, David's intepersonal, organizational and time management skills allow him to be an excellent resource for both an independent and team engagement. His attention to detail is reflected in his documentation deliverables, as well as, his follow up skills. He is a great asset to any project considering him as a part of their team. I highly recommend David to all inquiries and would welcome the opportunity to work with him again in future engagements.
