Dan is like a top of the line Dremel Multi Tool for software engineering - he comes with a bewildering range of attachments that make him invaluable in any situation. Whether it is Azure DevOps, Kubernetes, software architecture or just shipping high quality .NET solutions, Dan's got it covered.

Dan's enthusiasm for all things software engineering is infectious and that has had a positive impact on our team. He has helped introduce so many good tools and practices for us, it has been nothing short of transformational. If we explore something new it is usually not long before he has wrapped his head around it and interviewed someone about it on his podcast.

Dan's thoughtful approach to personal productivity is also a strength. He manages to get through so much work not only because he is highly skilled, but also because he manages himself and his time effectively.

I feel absolutely amazed to see the breadth of knowledge Dan possesses regarding the Cloud, .Net technologies, Kubernetes, Azure stack (only to mention a few). Dan is very passionate yet so humble. His blog, Azure Oxford, .Net Oxford meetups that he organises are fine examples of how much he cares to share the knowledge to the tech community. Dan is a great team player and is an absolute pleasure to work with. I would very highly recommend Dan.

I would highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for a skilled developer to join their teams. His technical knowledge and passion really shines through and in my time working with him he showed great professionalism and really helped progress the projects he worked on. Dan had an immediate and positive impact as soon as he joined the team, I can't recommend him highly enough.

Dan is a highly professional, articulate and knowledgeable software consultant. Regardless of whether you are planning an Azure platform project, a complex and technical proof of concept or a high quality commercial software platform, Dan would fit the bill.

One of Dan's key strengths is his ability to communicate the subtlest of technical factors at executive level. For example, at Sharp Life Science, he was asked to sit in on the IT Steering committee where his knowledge and communication skills proved to be invaluable. He would influence people positively adding value and efficiency to any given approach. Dan was also able to point out pitfalls and risks in a constructive way.

Dan has a passion for Software Development which, as well as in the workplace, he also expresses through both the .NET Oxford and Azure Oxford user groups, which he runs. Dan likes to share and help others develop their software skills. Personally, I look forward to our 1-2-1 meetings where we cover various software technologies and how they can add value.

Although Dan's capable skills are C#, .NET and Azure, Dan is driven to stay up to speed with many of the latest technologies, tools and frameworks. He takes the time to understand a given technology to a level where he can exploit it commercially, quickly and with quality.

Dan is a collaborative team member, more than comfortable acting as a scrum master member, as well as supporting the developer community in general.

Dan takes customer orientation/support as a high priority. He responds to issues raised and queries very quickly, but with a detailed analysis of the problem space. Dan's insight allows him to accurately identify the root cause of a given issue remarkably quickly.

Last year Dan was awarded the status of Microsoft MVP. All who work with him closely feel that this is very well earned and an appropriate acknowledgement of what Dan contributes to the developer community.

Dan is very generous with his time, helping people develop. For example, as part of the .NET Oxford and Azure Oxford groups, he puts on lightning talks where people can develop their skills. Dan has given extra time to help people with their code and to practice their presentations or general coaching. I for one have grown much more confident in my ability to adopt newer technologies thanks to Dan.

Dan has the ability to build trusting long term relationships. Am now honoured to call him a friend.

Dan (Everstack Ltd) was contracted directly to Sharp Life Science. Dan demonstrated the ability to manage commercial relationships professionally and efficiently. Dealing with sensitive contract points in his usual detailed and constructive manner.

It has been a pleasure to work with Dan. I recommend him without reservation to any organisation who requires .NET/Azure solutions, but I also hope to get an opportunity to work with him again in the future.

Dan is a superb software engineer, thorough, hard working and always able to come up with solutions to whatever problems arise. During the two years I worked with him I have come to consider him as a friend as well as a trusted colleague.

It has been a fantastic experience working with Dan. He is motivated and has high standards of professionalism, thereby both inspiring team members as well as challenging ideas when needed.

Dan is a Microsoft MVP (Most Valuable Professional), so definitely Microsoft vouches for his technical abilities and also non-technical skills such as public speaking, event organising etc. I have been working with Dan in the same team and he has managed to help me achieve a bit more quicker, mainly due to his drive. Dan has implemented and continuously improves our web capabilities including our on-premises Kubernetes infrastructure. On the administrative side, Dan is our AzureAD admin, is co-admin on our Azure DevOps infrastructure and also does active desktop software development. Dan has done many company wide talks at our workplace to inform and inspire our colleagues about technology.

Dan is the organiser of .Net Oxford & Azure Oxford user groups at Oxford, which are communities focussing on technical talks & events to share knowledge. As part of this Dan has done many inspiring talks. He has also managed to get us great speakers such as Jon Skeet & Uncle Bob (Robert Martin).

Outside of work, Dan is quite active, highly recommended gym/running buddy. He tried teaching me backflips at trampolining as well.

We approached Dan to carry out initial concept work for a MVP, the level of work was outstanding from understanding what we were trying to achieve to the implementation of technologies.

Dan explained fully what technologies he would use and why, giving us a clear vision of what was being done while ensuring everything was stored in GitHub.

Dan has ensured that all documentation was completed before hand over giving us a solid direction. It was clear from the onset that Dan is passionate about development and technologies.

A pleasure to work with and would highly recommend.

Dan has been a great asset to the team during his time at Ridgeway. His knowledge and experience has added to the projects that he worked on and this knowledge has been freely passed on to others within the team.

Dan integrated into the team with the greatest of ease and was very quickly held in high regard for his technical ability and support for other members in the team. He has a great ability to assess issues and provide solutions or challenge those that already exist. This goes deeper than just project issues, also providing some insight and suggestions for the way in which we work in general.

It's always refreshing to deal with someone who has a driven passion for their work and is eager to pass what they know on to others in order to improve the team collectively.

Given the opportunity, I would gladly work with Dan again and would recommend him highly to anyone that may be looking for a skilled developer to add to their team.

Dan's work was excellent and his knowledge and willingness to contribute to the team was first rate. A powerhouse of a developer delivering high quality work at a fast pace. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a good contractor.

I would recommend Dan to anyone that needs a skilled, thoughtful, talented and insightful developer. He has challenged ideas and opinions in positive and constructive ways that have helped shape the team and made the project progress quicker.

Dan has developed a lot of code for the project I'm working on and have found it to be well thought out, clean, functional, easy to read and makes sense.

Dan has worked closely with DustScan Ltd since 2010 to help us redevelop our in-house software. Dan's expertise and abilities in software development have been vital to our project. Dan has always communicated fully with us and has dealt professionally with feedback from the rest of the team.

Dan is a very thorough, hard working coder. He was a pleasure to work with and always positive towards his tasks.

Dan is a skilled programmer, hard worker and very flexible. He can turn his hand to almost anything.
