Most impressively, he is able to instantly understand impacts to infrastructure architecture and EXPLAIN it in clear English to everyone in the room at their level Senior Management, Project Managers, Software Architects, Developers, QA and sales people.

A typical day for Dennis starts at 6:00AM and might not end until 2:00 or 3:00AM.
