There are a number of issues with this article from the promotional tone and disingenuous sourcing to the promotional photo supplied by the subject. In case it's not obvious, I strongly suspect paid editing here. After wading through all of that, the sources used are almost entirely published by the subject. There's a total lack of significant coverage by independent reliable sources. Sources include articles by the subject, self-published content, the subject's own LinkedIn profile and IMDb. Beyond what has been used to build this promo-fest, I couldn't find a single instance of significant coverage - its all social media and his own blogs. More than happy to be proven wrong on all counts, but... St★lwart 111 07:37, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
