Brandy Cole - Creative Director at Wayfarer Entertainment
Allan is absolutely great to work with! Very eager to get his elbows dirty and do the work. He comes in every day with a smile on his face ready to tackle what has been given to him. Allan comes with broad thinking and works really well with others. More people should be as excited as he is coming in to work every day.
Joe Sgro - Creative Director at Battery
Allan is a talented art director, designer, photographer, miniature set designer, fast food model, and mustache grower. He's a really hard worker and is willing to do anything for the team. I remember him pulling all-nighters to get a project done, and he came through like a champ. Also, he's just a good guy to have around. No matter how bad a day I was having, just walking past him in the halls always made me smile.
Craig Nelson - ACD at Media Monks
Working with Allan was a blast! He had great attention to detail and good ideas/problem solving skills. The project we worked on together had a harsh deadline for a shoot date and he had no problem putting in the extra work to make sure it was ready on time. His designs were awesome and translated perfectly to the physical "miniature" set we were putting together (which actually turned out to be pretty massive).
Zachary Smith - ACD at Experian
It’s rare that you come across a guy like Allan. He is a talented art director and designer, adept at using all the professional design tools to bring his creative ideas to life. He also has one of the best mustaches, and overall style I have ever witnessed. I had the pleasure of collaborating with Allan while he worked at RPA, and I hope to have more opportunities to work with him in the future.
Brett Pfeiffer - ACD at Experian
Allan truly is a creative powerhouse. I have had the pleasure of working alongside Allan on several major projects. He has always been positive, imaginative, and has truly put the creative process above all else (including sleep). Allan is like no other creative I have worked with and will absolutely bring a fresh perspective to any creative team.
Jefferey Pelton - Sr. Copywriter
Allan is a dedicated and persistent creative who truly enjoys collaboration.
He understands the fact that the crux of a strong campaign relies on an insightful strategy. Allan is a fun guy who is a blast to work with. His relentless work ethic will be an asset to any team he works on in the future.
Francesca Casillas - Sr. Art Director
Allan is a comedic creative that brings strong artistic and strategic skills to a team. He is extremely enthusiastic about his work which brings a good, positive energy to all those around him. I have had the opportunity to work with him on two teams now. We were teamed up at the One Club Creative Bootcamp where we tackled a brief for No Kill Los Angeles to make shelter animals “the pick of the litter.” Allan brought a lot of original and exuberant ideas to the team. I was impressed by his approach to the brief. He provided all the sketches for our storyboard, which placed our team in 1st. I then spent a summer interning with him at TBWA\Chiat\Day. Throughout the internship Allan always went above and beyond, trying to get his hands on any task or challenge he could find. His passion for advertising is very evident. He is conceptually creative and a skilled illustrator. He is the type of mind a team needs to bring game changing ideas.
Candela S. Rebot - Executive Producer
Allan is a great AD to have around the office. His skill set is varied, which makes him helpful in more scenarios than you would except. For example, he is an excellent photographer and is really good with crafts. His attitude during the time we worked together made us all always happy, he knows how to lighten a room up, something that's really appreciated in this industry. Overall, a really strong team member: plays fair, is talented, smart, great hard-working attitude, and cares about those around him. Working with him was great!
