Throughout my time as a designer I've had the pleasure of working directly with many clients of both an individual and organisational nature alike. Each have their own respective experience and point of view towards creatives and creativity, as well as the work that they require. Each time it allows people like me to learn and mature in various fields.
On occassion clients and team members may even feel so moved as to write a message of appreciation. I include some that I have received over time.
If you wish to find out more please feel free to contact any of the presented recommenders directly, and get a sense of who I am, how we've worked in the past, and how I may be able to help you.

“Above all, Raymond is a man of integrity. He is also passionate about his work, satisfying clients and striving for continuous improvement. He has become a strong manager and is highly effective at balancing the needs to the team and those of the company. While he runs a motivated and dedicated team, he has also proven to be capable of handling every challenge that business can throw at him. In addition, he is a good creative.” - John Bourke, Founder & Chairman, KK. Nichiai
“I have had the opportunity to see Ray in action and really understand what drives him to make the output of his product to the highest of standards. He takes on a new project with extreme attention to detail and documents his progress along the way. He gives every project 110% and treats each one as his own. You can rest well, knowing that anything he or his department produces that isn't up to his standards will be re-worked over and over again until it hits perfection. It's my opinion that one should choose a designer based on their previous work so that you get an adequate feel for that designer's style and ability. If you like what you see, and then be rest assured the end product will be to your liking. There is personal pride that goes into every one.” - Josh Bellendir, Regional IT Specialist, Japan at Abercrombie & Fitch "It was a pleasure directly working with Raymond for a year. His sheer genuine passion for his work was remarkable and something I personally looked up to. Raymond has excellent management skills and has done a great job aspiring people around him. Combined with a hard working attitude and a keen eye for details, Ray is a valuable asset in any organization." - Stanley Chow, Web Developer, Nichiai Creative
“I have had the pleasure of working with Raymond for close to two years. In that time, I have been extremely pleased with Ray's work, and have been able to observe his growth from being not only a highly talented graphic designer, but also an extremely capable Manager/Art Director. In this time frame, we've been able to grow our Creative department at K.K. Nichiai, primarily through Ray's leadership and design skills. Many of our customers return to us for repeat business, and all have positive things to say about Nichiai Creative, and the work that Raymond and his team have accomplished. I would recommend Raymond highly to anyone interested in a motivated, driven, dedicated, highly organized, and personable colleague.” - Robert Scherrer, President, KK. Nichiai
"Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Creative
Raymond is very talented and great to work with, is always careful to clearly understand your requirements and delivers great results." - Anne Lanigan, Director, Enterprise Ireland, Japan
“Raymond managed a number of design projects for me, including printed brochures, magazine ads, and exhibit booths.
In each case, the design process was enjoyable, with regular communication and collaboration, and the finished product met and often exceeded expectations.
Raymond was especially good at taking my abstract ideas and turning them into concrete, effective design themes. I highly recommend him and hope he’ll still be available to work with us, too.” - Todd Fouts, International Operations Manager, The Society for Testing English Proficiency (STEP), Inc.
