I worked with Elvis a few years in Games production. As an Art director I really enjoyed working with a producer like Elvis; he is organized, focused, a great technical lead, always ready to make the pipeline and workflow evolve with automation, better tools and better communication. He also has a good sense of humor and a good eye for art! I miss working with him.

— Valerie Zaroli, Art Manager, Playable Worlds, worked with Elvis at RockYou.

Elvis was my colleague for about 10 months. I saw him lead his team through numerous tough deadlines. He did this by leading by example; he would discuss deliverables with Product team and efficiently plan the schedule to ensure that every team member knew what was expected of them. When needed, he would dive into the weeds with the team to get things done. Elvis is one of the best producers I have seen and he would be an excellent addition to any company.

— Abhijith Shashidhara, Senior Product Manager, Zynga, worked with Elvis at RockYou.

Man with the mission, technically very sound, His logics are very clear, no ego no attitude & very friendly, approachable. People will definitely like to work with him… I had great learning from Elvis in technology & gaming concept (logic & analytical thinking).

Elvis is the finest tech-head I have ever seen, having great ablities to break a tight situation and is able to deal with deadlocks with ease. He has a simple solution to every problem.
