Len is such a pleasure to work with and one of the most genuine colleagues I've ever had. His digital marketing knowledge will wow you. He is one of those unique individuals that can evaluate a situation and when adding his thoughts, it's like he turns on a light in a dark room where he will uncover what the rest of us were missing to make the program the best it can be. His counsel and recommendations are also always heavily rooted in what is best for the clients AND their customers. He is a true asset that was always discovering and sharing the latest technologies that add value to the business. I highly recommend Len and would be thrilled to work with him in the future.

If you have the chance to work for Len, hire him, or collaborate on a business venture, do it. I had the good fortune to manage him for several years at GolinHarris. Two things you should know about Len: He's one of the most creative people you'll ever meet, brimming with ideas and able to apply technology to solve problems in wildly unexpected (and useful) ways. And equally important, he's a first class human being. Len is a guy who succeeds in everything he does and his friends at GolinHarris are excited to see what he does in his next act.

As a result, we were able to deliver an online program that was right on strategy and delivered extremely well. Len was extremely instrumental in the development of this project. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a true partner who values strategic thinking and looks out for the clients best interests.

Len is intelligent and creative. His dry sense of humor got us through several tense situations! While the student manager of a team of 20, his staff sold close to $2 million in advertising during one school year. Len would be an asset to any organization.
