Sélim was a pleasure to work with. He was punctual, flexible, and communicative throughout our time working together. He was able to meet the demands of an intensive, sensitive project with understanding, compassion, and patience. He is highly talented and I would highly recommend him for future projects, and I look forward to potentially working with him again in the future.
