Client Testimonials

Picture
"I'll never forget one of our first meetings when we were brainstorming about opportunities for Tongue & Groove: I was actually moved to tears! I had done all of the work on my own for so long and suddenly here's this team of people who were fully invested in making my company thrive, and so focused on my vision! Feeling that collaborative spirit was a joyful moment. Since that time, with the consistent collaborative guidance of VDC, I've moved my company forward down the growth path. I've restructured my business model and we're about to dive into some wonderful new challenges. There's no way we would be at this point without the kind, patient, and wise attention of VDC!"

​- Bobbi Block, Producing Artistic Director
