What oTHERS Say

Founder / Director
theProject Media and Advertising
Drew Eltze

"Chris doesn’t just ‘consult’ – he actually gets stuck in and gets his hands dirty.

Our team leaned on him for client acquisition to internal systems, to actually doing the every day grunt work. He’s sharp, fast, and doesn’t waste anyone’s time (or money)."

Marketing Director
Škoda Middle East
Ralph Beckmann

"Truly a diamond in the rough. Thank you for giving us the guidance and direction while we were just getting started.

Your clarity and vision are unmatched and we owe a large part of where the brand is today to you."

Marketing Manager
Volkswagen Middle East
Sary Hamadeh

“A legend among the team.

One of the best presenters and well-spoken individuals I've had the pleasure of working with. Whether it be pitch decks or monthly data reports, I always look forward to Chris' slides.”
