What they said
I’ve worked on Outlook Hour Tracking for aCom with David Cumps. And during this project he showed his skills for leading a project (Managing planning, setting up a project solution, choosing frameworks). I have learned a lot from him on how to create useful application architectures during this project lifetime. I could always count on his help and technological expertise.
