I was lucky to work with Gary on a number of websites and video productions. He brings a wonderful balance of creativity and practicality to every project he works on. Gary is always keen to learn and picks up new skills very quickly. Gary is a true people person and his cheerful personality makes him a pleasure to work with.

Gary is a great addition to team dynamics; he brings a strength in collaboration and attention to detail to all of the projects he’s working on. His extra attention made the difference between regular, and great outcomes.
