I have had the pleasure of working with Daniel Puiatti at Outpost for several years and find him to be the consummate professional. His knowledge of social media trends and practices is outstanding and he brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and creativity to the website and web presence. Dan is an excellent writer, has great general knowledge and an exemplary attitude. He is a committed hard worker, has a valuable sense of humour and is someone you always want on your team.

Sergio David Spadavecchia

Creative Director

Daniel Puiatti (Dan) is an incredible colleague, detail-oriented, precise and focused.
I had the pleasure to work with Dan for several years and not only in the office but also on expeditions across the world and his knowledge and skills are a dream for any employer. If there is something that he does not know, he has the persistent determination to "figure it out" and find the best solution tailored on the company's needs.  Self-motivated he is constantly working on improving his own skills and finding new creative ways to bring the company to a next level. Dan is definitely an asset for any company and for any team that want's to go that extra mile.

Jeff Ludlow

Senior Recruiter

It was an absolute thrill having Daniel as a part of our call center team! Daniel is an extremely dependable, reliable, hard-working person that always goes the extra mile to get the job done. He would consistently meet and exceed our daily production quotas and always set a good example for the rest of the staff. His work ethic and upbeat personality makes it easy for him to build effective work relationships and succeed in a team based environment. Above all, he is a very creative and strategically minded person with great attention to detail. He was always asking the right questions and looking for ways to improve! Daniel would be a great addition to any team!

Dan is a critical thinker that brings value to a team. Working with him on a charity fundraising event and in a number of group projects has given me the chance to see his skills in action. He's politically savvy, knows the ins-and-outs of digital communication and has an uncanny sense of humour that lights up the room
