Bio
David Opperman
I did not work with Don long but I can honestly say that I was sad to see him go. He has an incredible knowledge of AWS and the tooling which surrounds it. He was always willing to help and never shied away from getting stuck into the hard problems and on occasion the boring ones as well. I highly recommend him.
Xavier Romanet
We migrated our online sales distribution channels (website, mobile app, micro-sites, etc...) to the cloud. Don was the brain behind this migration. Not only Don is a fantastic cloud architect, but he is also not afraid to roll up his sleeves and get things done with great speed and quality. It has been an honour, but also a pleasure to have Don in the team and I cannot recommend him more warmly.
Damian Connolly
I worked with Don when he was brought in as a consultant to assist Kuoni with our DR strategy - and our first usage of Amazon Web Services. He had exceptional knowledge around all of the Amazon products, and had some great suggestions on how to migrate services from our physical data center to Amazon. He was able to provide security advice and displayed intimate knowledge of Amazon's Marketplace offerings including F5 BigIP. I would recommend working with Don to anyone!
