Donald Ross’ 5th Anniversary: Celebrating Five Years of Excellence

Cyber security consultants at work

Today marks Donald Ross’ 5th Anniversary with FullProxy. Joining us in November 2017, Donald, our esteemed Senior Consultant, has been an integral part of our growth journey. As we approach our 7th anniversary this December, we reflect on the invaluable contributions Donald has made to building our extensive client portfolio.

A true technical virtuoso in Network Security Architecture, Donald’s dedication to his craft is unwavering. His recent achievement of passing the Fortinet NSE 7 SD-WAN exam is a testament to his continuous pursuit of knowledge, even outside of regular working hours.

We’re incredibly grateful for Donald’s commitment and expertise. His passion for his work is an inspiration to the entire FullProxy team.

Happy 5th work anniversary, Donald! Here’s to many more successful years together.
