Bio
Frencesco Micciche
Derick has proven time and time again that he contains the tenacity and drive to accomplish great things within an organization. He has shown the mental compacity to learn a difficult topic such as firewalls, and become a subject matter expert within a short period of time. To build upon this, Derick has a compassionate heart that is all to often dismissed in a work environment that generates a sense of cohesion and trust within the team and those that he works with. While working together on the GPS project, I found that he brought out the best in the team and challenged them to remove themselves from their comfort zone and be a better engineer, as well as a better individual. I highly recommend Derick for his strengths as a Network Engineer and his remarkebly kind heart for any role or position that he chooses to pursue in his career.
