Top SchoolDave Donaldson is a results-driven Director of Technology & Infrastructure with 8+ years in formal IT leadership and over two decades of hands-on operations and systems experience. Based in Trabuco Canyon, he excels at bridging technical strategy and stakeholder communication to deliver resilient cloud, security, and data-driven solutions while mentoring teams to grow professionally and personally. He is equally comfortable presenting to the C-suite as he is coaching junior engineers, and he takes ownership during crises to minimize disruption.

His leadership is marked by a focus on continuous learning, cross-functional collaboration, and measurable efficiency gains. Not obvious at first glance: his career began in customer-facing roles, which informs his strong emphasis on service, empathy, and clear communication across the business.
