“Alex is one of the best employees I have ever managed. He is truly inspired as an animator and his dedication to his craft is extreme. His knowledge of animation technique and history is truly impressive; he would frequently couple a creative recommendation with a history of the aesthetic principles being applied and the key individuals involved. Alex joined our team as an animator but wound up making deep contributions as a modeler and designer as well. His attitude is relentlessly upbeat; he is extremely well-organized and proactive. I would hire Alex again in a heartbeat and recommend him without reservation.” August 10, 2009
