“Alvaro and Jeff have been stars here for a while,” CP+B chairman Chuck Porter said in a statement. “They’re not just serious talents, they never quit – they have the passion and drive that it takes to actually get good work produced. And Juan, well, he made himself so valuable during his freelance stint that we just had to get him here for real. This is all really good news for Miami and for CP+B.”
