WORKING WITH DJ:
Working around someone, who is motivated, focused, and the consummate professional energizes you, motivates you and keeps you on track. DJ Perry embodies that. Each time I have worked with him, I have always come away with a feeling of purpose. He lights a fire under me to stay with it. DJ has a great combination of humor and concentration. There is a time and place for everything. His ability to convey a range of emotion in a single glance is unparalled. His tender yet intense approach to each of his roles will no doubt continue to carry him through an already successful career.
