Geoff is a phenomenal individual. He is consistently pushing the boundaries of web and interactive and has been a challenging and inspiring person to work with. His ideas and ability to see them through have been a direct result of many of my own career successes.

As a senior level copywriter, I have the pleasure of working with top-tier marketing talent across the world. And I can say without hesitation that Geoff is among the best. While his pedigree from having worked with some of the world's biggest brands is certainly impressive, it's his sense of adventure that really elevates him to another level. He's not afraid to chart a different course -- in fact, I get the distinct sense that he relishes in the challenge! This is good for Geoff, good for the professionals he works with, and most importantly, it's good for his clients.

Geoff has one of the most forward-thinking digital minds I’ve encountered. He sees the entire digital landscape, in particular how social media can best intersect with technology to raise value in the interactive world. Neither timid nor shy. Geoff is never afraid to speak his mind once he’s formulated a vision. He’s a hundred miles an hour, aggressive and always moving forward, forward, forward. If you want a cookie cutter, look elsewhere. If you want to swing for the fences, have Geoff on speed dial.

I don't even really know where to begin with Mr. Whitlock. He was my first real boss, and gave me my first real position in the digital advertising and marketing space. Because of him, I've grown. Because of him, I've learned to take each challenge with excitement and enthusiasm. Because of him, I am where I am today. He constantly pushed me to do better, to think smarter and to be the best in my discipline. I owe the guy a lot, and he's a great pleasure to work with--if you're looking for driven, out of the box and fun, Geoff is your man.
