Isaac's vision is fresh and adventurous, making him a real boon to an organization that cannot afford to rest on its laurels. On top of all that, he still understands how to put the work away at the end of the day to enjoy a good beer and sashimi with friends-- and trust me, you'll want to hear his stories over dinner." and "Isaac and I worked together regularly on Music@Menlo activities through his position at ArtistLed. In all aspects of our work, he demonstrated a necessary and high-valued ability to work across departmental teams and through physical and organizational barriers (I direct fundraising in California and he worked on the artistic planning in NYC). A strong and clear communicator he excelled at maintaining the highest artistic standards and sharing his knowledge and values in writing and spoken form to guide public communications on artistic matters and internal discussions. On site during the festival, he was respected and liked by everyone from staff and musicians to major donors, a result achieved no doubt through his intelligence--both academic and emotional--and his good humor and easy communication style. Isaac was a pleasure to work with and inspirational to be around--it would be an honor to work together again in the future."
