I first met Del when he served on the hiring committee that brought me to SoCal Adaptive Sports. From our very first interaction, I was struck by his thoroughness, professionalism, and commitment to ensuring the best fit for the organization—not just in terms of skills, but culture and mission alignment as well.

Del truly understands the unique challenges and resource constraints we face, and he consistently offers thoughtful, strategic guidance tailored to our needs. He approaches complex issues with clarity and compassion, always keeping the wellbeing of our team and the success of our mission at the forefront.
