Bio
Stephen James
It was always enjoyable working with David on projects at Salesforce. The primary one we worked together on was consumed by more than 70 projects across more than 12 management chains. We were from different parts of the company, but shared a common goal focused on delivering a high-quality user interface for our customers. David was responsive to feedback and excited to instill excellence at every turn. He was never shy to work on open source projects and step in to help others out. He took a wide view–looking for broad impact within an organization and opportunities to collaborate. He consistently had a kind word of encouragement and exuded friendliness and professionalism to his co-workers. I'd love to work with David again in the future and those that do are fortunate to do so.

David is a down to earth, easy going person. He has the soft skills required to do anything. He learns fast and has the ability to take a step back in order to solve problems.
