We offered everything from embroidery, screen printing, offset printing, digital printing, laser engraving, & graphic design services. I was able to work in all these fields & gain expert experience & knowledge on a variety of machines as well. Before I moved to California & while I was earning my degree I worked as an intern for my college's online classroom department. I was eventually hired as the lead graphic designer. I had the pleasure of working with online graphics & videos for many online classes. I've always had a love for graphic design. In my school days, I was on the newspaper staff & enjoyed the layout/design & photography aspects over reporting. I started my college career in advertising, which lead me back to photography and eventually into my niche of print design.

I enjoy working with my hands & finding beauty in everyday things. I even dabble in gardening & the more plants I keep alive the more I enjoy it! I don't claim to know all the answers, however I believe that the answers are out there, so if I find myself saying I don't know, just wait & I'll find and answer. hide
