Bio
Darren Ross
Working with Barney has been super. He's a good Account Manager with the ability to see the quickest route to goal and propose imaginative solutions rather than being shackled by the technology. Barney is definitely one of the easiest people I've worked with. He's pro-active in managing projects yet entirely open to suggested alternatives, so project discussions with him rapidly resolved issues and produced concrete steps. Best of all, Barney actually wants to do a good job, and in an industry that's inherently complex and therefore subject to bad practices I think that's a valuable quality. I'm hard pushed to think of a more thoroughly decent and honest chap, and the office is going to be a lot less fun without him. Absolutely recommended by me.

Barney is a creative talent who surpasses all expectations. He has a knack of working things out and he delivers his best performance when needed most.
