Another clean and simple portrait Joe, not sure if you pop a BKG mask on it and just give a white BKG it, it may help or look too sterile?
Think you pushed the greens, so if you do a mask for the white throat you can reduce the colour cast there leaving the rest in tact. Personally I would choose PS as you have more control. Going darker in the burgundy body adds a bit more more and shape/character.

Hey Joe, Your almost always do well with what I find to be awkward image designs. I'd clean up the white specks above and below the base of the bill.
