I first learned of Adrian's services through a design and monetization audit that he completed for a good friend of mine. When he began seeking business development support I was happy to help. Adrian and his team know design, engagement, and monetization better than any group I've seen. I highly recommend reaching out to him if you need support for your titles.

Source: LinkedIn Jason Della Rocca Sep 16, 2013I hired Adrian as a consultant working on a game team. He brought a lot of expert knowledge about social gaming and best practices, which contributed a lot to the success of the project. He was also very proactive and went above and beyond the normal consultant agreement by making himself accountable for results.

In his time working with us, he become one of our key go-to people for important design work, and he always delivered with quality, consistency, and thoughtfulness. From creative concept, to organization, to implementation, Adrian is the complete package.

He has introduced to me to various people who have helped advance my business and games. I recommend him to anyone who is looking for new opportunities within the growing gaming industry.
Source: LinkedIn Carlo Sunseri Sep 16, 2013Adrian recently reviewed and prepared written assessments for six OMDC Interactive Digital Media Fund applications for video games. His final reviews and recommendations were fabulous - some of the best I've ever seen. I will definitely consider using Adrian again in the future.
Source: LinkedIn Kim Gibson Sep 16, 2013Adrian was willing to take (calculated!) risks for our clients and was willing to put in the long hours to see projects through whenever required. "On time" and "on budget" are his watchwords.
Source: LinkedIn Derek Yarnell Sep 16, 2013At Check Six, Adrian helped tremendously with managing the production of a game project by communicating with the off-site publisher. In addition to his professionalism, he is an easy going guy and is fun to be around. I would work with him again.
Source: LinkedIn Jimmy Alamparambil Sep 16, 2013We at CMI were very proud of the opportunity to work with Adrian on one his more recent projects. He and I worked at EA 'back in the day,' and his influence is still being felt in many of EA's "BIG" titles. He's a hell of a leader and I would love to have a chance to work with him again.
Source: LinkedIn Billy Joe Cain Sep 16, 2013Adrian is by far the best producer I have ever had the pleasure to work with! His desire to create the best product possible combined with his ability to establish excitement and enthusiasm within his staff and peers makes Adrian the backbone of his Dev team.
