“I met Douglas as a class colleague at Brigham Young University. Douglas is one of the most responsible and professional person that I had the privilege to study with. He has a high level of dedication, commitment and efficiency; he is able to solve problems always in an ethical, responsible and effective manner. He is very intelligent and easy to work with. I highly recommend him as a colleague, co-worker and business partner.”
