I have worked with Don on several occasions. Every time Don has been a pleasure to work with. He keeps in constant communication to ensure our needs are met and has always delivered in a timely fashion everything he has promised. I would recommend working with Don and endorse his ability to deliver.

I have worked with Don to help him set meetings with prospects. He always gets right back to me with any pertinent information, responds right away when I have any questions, and has a warmth and professionalism that makes him great to work with. He is a real asset to his firm and to our client base.
