“Gary, I can honestly say, is a true leader in every sense. He isn’t one to think outside the box…he’s gotten rid of it altogether, and tackles branding, creative, and integrated strategies fresh for every challenge that comes his way. His grassroots approach to problem-solving marketing and creative challenges has netted him several well-deserved awards, and it’s no surprise those working with him are receiving accolades as well. That’s largely due to the fact that he has NO problem rolling up his sleeves and doing whatever is needed to help his team succeed.”

“I’ve rarely been able to work for someone with Gary’s talent and depth of experience. Luckily I’ve had two opportunities to work with him. Once as a producer at CBS 11 and again as a freelancer at NBC 5. Gary was almost always the first to arrive and last to leave the office. He is a leader who worked hard and earned the respect of his colleagues. He stays in step with emerging technologies and has a deep understanding of television marketing. I always felt that his creativity, business acumen and diligence were leading us in the right direction. Any company would be lucky to have Gary on their staff.” 

“I was Gary’s Promotion Manager in Charlotte in the late 90’s. He was always full of ideas, enthusiasm and a very hard worker. In our time together, we completely re-branded our station, launched a new set, graphics package and anchor team. While at WCNC, Gary turned out many great spots and even won a National Emmy. I knew Gary was destined for greatness then, and he’s proven it, by going on to be the talented Marketing Executive he is today. One of the best in the business, I’d absolutely recommend Gary for any creative position!”
