Jonathan demonstrated non only technical skills , related to Microsoft solutions but as well IP telephony, but also business and entrepreneurial skills. Jonathan was also the link between our strategic partners Dimension data & Microsoft for delivering in partnership with our IT business organizations this major and complex program in such short timeframe. Moreover, besides his appreciated and recognized IT business professional skills, Jonathan has great behaviors and great human being qualities which are being demonstrated both in professional and private life

Simply put Jonathan was, and clearly is, a very talented Technologist. During the time I worked with him, he was a proactive engineer, consistently seeking out the best solutions for the platforms under his remit. The broadness of his knowledge in particular, made him a very useful contributor to the support and maintenance of our infrastructure and disaster recovery platform. Unsurprisingly he has moved on to architectural consultancy, a most fitting position for someone of his skills, attributes and understanding.
