“It was my pleasure to work with Chris at Upromise on a number of large enterprise projects for which he was a web applications architect. Chris has a deep understanding of all the major areas of functionality required to design and manage the end user experience for a modern public web offering, including information architecture, search engine optimization, security, edge-caching, browser compatibility, web analytics, AJAX, standards compliance, web server/proxy configuration, mobile strategy, page weight and performance considerations. Chris works extremely well with business and marketing leaders to provide solutions that both meet the goals of the business and provide a solid technical foundation. Chris approaches problems in a very logical and thorough manner and produces excellent, clear design documentation. Chris is also an excellent HTML/CSS/Javascript developer capable of producing high quality presentation tier code in a rapid manner. I highly recommend Chris to any company that has a strategic long term interest in running a large successful web-site, he will be an invaluable addition to your team.”

It was my first film project and first collaboration with Ben. It was awesome to work with him. He gave me the creative freedom I needed to weave his images with my sounds, and the process was tremendous fun. Deciding…Short Film.

It was my first film project and first collaboration with Ben. It was awesome to work with him. He gave me the creative freedom I needed to weave his images with my sounds, and the process was tremendous fun. Deciding when to play it straight (i.e. having the music directly reflect the emotions evoked by the screen) vs mixing it up (where the music was deliberately ambiguous or contradictory to the characters' moods) was an interesting challenge, but our discussions about editorial judgements always ended in laughter and consensus. It was an honor to get to work under Ben's direction and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.Other creators
