Gabe and I started at Scribe Media at the same time. His expertise at project management and anything audio related was immediately apparent. Gabe is ingratiating and funny, so not only will any projects that you work on get completed on time and with a high level of excellence, you will also have a blast throughout the process. Gabe has a tremendous amount of experience so he will deliver well thought out recommendations on how to improve processes and calls on that experience to troubleshoot and provide creative solutions when problems arise. Highly recommend Gabe.

Gabe stepped into audiobooks with a strong desire to learn, perform well, and look for areas to improve workflows. He asks great questions to deepen his understanding of the requirements of the role and he absorbs knowledge like a sponge in his desire to do well. He never fails to stop learning and excels at communication and connecting with people. He is fueled by a desire to succeed at a high level. He gave wonderful direction to the authors he was working with in the studio. Many of them stopped by my desk after their last session to let me know how much they enjoyed working with him. He was attentive to their needs and was able to help level-up their performance in a variety of ways. He understands recording studios, how to use the gear and studio etiquette. Gabe enjoys structuring production processes and has strong experience in this area. He will explore different project management tools thoroughly to make sure we are getting the most out of them and using them efficiently. He’s not shy about introducing new ideas, he’s receptive to feedback, and he is without doubt, a team player. Gabe is someone with an incredibly positive, open, and optimistic mindset. Simply put, this dude is going to bring a ton of value to your organization!
