Scott Jung

Leonard helped guide the marketing and business strategies of a community-based, crowdfunded music project called "Strength In Numbers". His vision, artistic sense, experience, expertise, and strong network of friends and like-minded individuals was crucial to our success. Leonard was key in the project's organization and completion, as well as determining ways to reach our target audience and ultimately make the project worthwhile monetarily as well as creatively.

Philip Sierzega

Leonard is a great producer who knows how to put the pieces of a project together from start to finish. Despite always juggling multiple projects, deadlines, and schedules, Leonard was always on top of his game making things happen. He is a great coordinator, organizer and project manager in addition to always finding the best food to eat no matter where he finds himself. He is a great asset to any team for both his skill set and personality. Any team would benefit by having him on board, and I hope our professional paths cross again soon.

Stephen Lundberg

Leonard knows his shit. He knows digital. He knows UX. He knows long hours. He knows complex wireframes. He knows fat copydecks. He knows how to set and reach goals as a team. He knows mobile, social and whatever else your client is asking for. He knows award winning work. He knows his professional sports teams in the SF bay area. And he knows where to get the best ramen noodle soup in New York City. Leonard knows his shit.
