I worked with Rick during his time leading account teams at Noble Studios. I was always impressed by his willingness to collaborate with my team and also his growth mindset in regards to advanced techniques in Google Ads account management–two skills I value immensely in partnership work. Happy to recommend Rick's leadership, deep digital marketing knowledge, and wonderful personability. Sending all my best!
