I had the pleasure of working with Bobby while I was at Capital C Communications as an Art Director. As a client, he was wonderful to work for, always open and honest with feedback and trusting of us as design consultants on the Dove Masterbrand. During our corporate offsite, I also got to see that he possesses quite the singing talent when we were forced to put together adhock bands and perform in front of our team-mates. A great sport and and all around wonderful person to work with.
