“Robert was my direct report for 6 years. I hired him onto my staff while with the Dallas Cowboys where he became an integral piece of my creative team. Robert's graphic design skill speaks for itself. He is a talented artist in both digital and traditional art applications. He is very strong conceptually and open to others opinions. Along with his creative talent, Robert is an excellent workflow manager and manages his and others time effectively. With an eye on deadlines, he is able to maintain a very high level of creativity efficiently and on time. Robert was assigned to some of our largest accounts and worked directly with sales and brand managers to execute a shared vision and common goals. Everyone that comes in contact with him had nothing but positive feedback from their experience working with Robert. Most importantly for me as Robert's Creative Director, he alway has a smile on his face and epitomized what a model employee should be. He approached each day as a new opportunity to do something great or learn something new. If my current company was in a position to add creative talent, I would hire Robert without hesitation. I highly recommend Robert for any creative role that he is seeking.”
