Let me Introduce Myself

My name is Damian J. Yates, but you knew that already.  I am a proud father of 4 wonderful children and grandfather to 2.  My greatest joy is derived from the happiness and gratitude I receive from those that I help during my days.  The focus of that joy used to be centered around my kids, but now that they are all grown, I find that focus now shifting towards my work and my bi-weekly acts of kindness.

An Aspiring Network Engineer

I have been chasing my dream of being a Network Engineer for the last 7 years of my 20 years in Information Technology. I have held roles ranging from helpdesk telephone support to Network Engineer. Although I have and maintain an alphabet soup of certifications, I still continue to build upon my knowledgebase and seek out those I believe I can learn from.

I've been working closely with Damian for some time on one of our SP projects. He proved to be a very knowledgeable asset with regards to our SharePoint development. We contracted his services to help us support SharePoint as a hub for use by various departments in our company. Damian provided professional assistance, and was eager to help as challenges arose. Besides a very good knowledge of SharePoint Damian has a very strong knowledge of Windows Server, SQL Server, Powershell. He has a very good understanding of how SharePoint world works as well as other IT components that was very helpful in many issues that we had to solve. He has a very pleasant personality and pleasure to work with. I’d recommend Damian as SP resource.

Damian has excellent SharePoint administration skills. I've witnessed these firsthand, and I'm a SharePoint Administrator myself. One example of his ability was finding the cause of a very obscure issue that had Microsoft Premier support stumped. He has a strong work ethic, and has worked on SharePoint 2007, 2010 and 2013 systems. I strongly recommend Damian; I'd hire him, and I sorely miss working with him.
