He is a project manager’s dream! He is flexible, eager to please, always meets deadlines, charges fairly, and asks intelligent questions when needed. Our editing team respects his work because there’s seldom much redo necessary when Willy’s on the job!

We are always pleased by his end product and grateful to have such a trusted language artist working with us!"
