Mr. Galyen attributes G-Squared’s success to its reputation

long-term, sustaining relationships with our clients. I attribute
this to the time and effort our entire staff dedicates to fully
understand our clients’ requirements and ensure the project
meets their needs.”
Mr. Galyen said G-Squared performs all production
