I've worked with brook for a few a years now, and have always been impressed with his immense skill and ability to come up with highly creative and far reaching ideas. I've known him since I was an intern several years ago, and he definitely set the mark for skill back then for me and continues to impress me. I fully recommend his work and services for anyone looking for design services.
