“I can not think of anyone more deserving and qualified than my brother RJ. His talent, vision and ability to act on his creative ideas in a organized, planned and finely executed way has made him at the top of every field. But it is his compassion and caring of people that sets him above the rest. He has volunteered thousands of hours in order to preserve our Nations heros, our veterans. As well as many charitable organizations. Getting a chance to work with him one on one at inventive productions was an honor. His work ethic and moral ethic unwavering. RJ also has a great sense of humor and ease about him that attracts clients. The fact that all his many clients over the years are still in contact with him and friends with him speaks volumes. RJ has what I call the "Midas Touch" no matter his endeavor, situation, or goal everything he touches ends up making money and smelling like a rose! He is like a cross between Warren Buffet and Sir Richard Branson with a little John Denver :)
