If you want the job done right, Alan is your guy!! Alan and I have worked together and been friends for over 30years and I have yet to meet anyone with his drive and passion. He has a unique eye for beauty as well as function. The two+ years I worked with him at MB Media were the best. He allows you to use your strengths and explore your passions even if not directly related to your job title. He has a heart of gold and a level of compassion for all he comes in contact with! Alan will be an asset on any team and in any capacity because he is just that kind of man.
