I had the pleasure to work with Christian for the theming of Ratatouille's restaurant in Disneyland Paris. Christian accompanied our visits into the workshop and supported the project team to check the work status, quality, choice of materials, project progress and timing. His knowledge about production related process, materials and methods to realize high quality themed decorations and its impact to guest experience is excellent. He turns challenges into something positive and to satisfy all parties to ensure a successful project. It has been a pleasure to work with him on the professional and human side. I would highly recommend him for any theming project and client liaison.
