Testimonials

“I've had Spencer on many teams of mine over the years. He's a reliable team player with a model work ethic. He gets his work done efficiently, on time with superb attention to detail. He will catch issues with something and have them solved before you even mention it. Spencer stays on top of his work constantly, and his strongest attributes are his reliability, integrity, humor, and honesty—the best qualities by far.”

— Greg DiBenedetto, former Publisher, Guitar World / Co-Founder and Former Managing Director, Music Aficionado

“Spencer would be a terrific asset at any music-related or editorial venture. He's a talented writer and editor with a deep understanding of music in many genres and decades. He's fluent in many online tools and picks up new technologies quickly. He is also exceptionally methodical, organized and industrious and will figure out how to complete any task put in front of him, improvising when necessary to get a project completed. I couldn't recommend Spencer more highly.”

— Derek Penn, Co-Founder & COO, Music Aficionado

“Spencer is a heads-up go-to guy with a sharp copy editor's eye. In my years working with him at Music Aficionado, he was quick to respond to any fixes I asked for and shrewd about catching my goofs and getting me to fix them. Writers are prickly beings. Any editorial relationship that works is built on trust and skill and communication, and in my experience Spencer delivers on all three. In the multimedia world of streaming, refining and dovetailing all the elements is crucial. Even more so at MA, aimed at literate, thoughtful, and passionate readers quick to pick nits. As production director, Spencer helped MA tick like a Patek Philippe.”

“In the process of building our very first website, Spencer was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was personable, communicative, patient, hard-working, and passionate about creating the best website he could for us. Not only was he flexible he was in working with an England-based organisation an entire ocean away, all of us appreciated his enthusiasm, humour, reliability, and the time and care he took to fully understand what we are all about. I cannot recommend him and his work more highly.”

— Danny Porter, Birch Green Amateur Boxing Club

“I worked with Spencer at Music Aficionado, and was never less than impressed with his hard work, enthusiasm, and raw ability at putting together the best user experience possible. He's very sharp, knows an awful lot about music that was made years before he was born, and is a good-hearted, very upbeat guy. I have the highest expectations for him and know he'll see nothing but great success in the future.”
