    So much fun to work with. Whenever given new direction he hits the ground running and gets the perfect take. His voices have so much whimsy and delight to them, but he is easily able to capture darker shades to his voice. Also, he is a hard worker, even willing to jump on as an editor for the project. I could not recommend him enough!
