Bio
Jim McDonagh
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Bruce during my tenure at Future Games of London. Bruce is not just a project manager he is a bone fide Producer. He cares not just for the timeline but also the quality of the game. He possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience with regards to games and is no slouch at Call of Duty either. I really appreciated Bruce's honesty, his courage when talking truth to power and his sense of humour no matter the situation. A real go getter and a great asset to any company lucky enough to have Bruce on their books.

I had the pleasure to work with Bruce in my role as supervising art director on a number of outsourced projects for Zynga. In that high pressure environment he demonstrated without exception his qualities of patience, organisation, good management and ability to retain his good humour in many a stressful situation. His role demanded a flexible and decisive mindset, requiring that he be available for last minute, 24 hour emergency troubleshooting with internationally based teams, on top of his normal scheduled production duties. These challenges he handled with efficiency and good grace, keeping his team motivated and successful. I respect his abilities and professionalism greatly, and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a producer at his level or higher. I personally would also look forward to working with him again anytime, anywhere the opportunity arises. Nick Martinelli- Studio AD Dhruva Infotech
