Leslie joined Dovel as CEO in 2011. In that time, he led the growth of the company from a small business with less than 50 employees into a significant player in the federal government space with over 2,200 personnel today. With Leslie's vision and leadership, Dovel focused on the health IT, life sciences, and grants management markets, building a unique team by combining subject matter experts to support the technologists, creating solutions for clients working in these complex and data-rich environments.
"I am so grateful to Damon for the outstanding support and exceptional leadership he has provided me and the Dovel team. Succession planning has been a critical component of our strategy as we looked to the future, including the timing of this transition," commented Leslie.
