Which campaign are you most proud of?
I definitely feel a sense of pride in any project that contributes to our clients’ success. One project that sticks out is the Winter Classic hockey game at Wrigley Field. Designing and producing banners/signage, we helped turn the iconic baseball venue into an outdoor hockey arena to celebrate the unique event!

Recreating the packaging for Nutri-Pak fertilizer. Client only had previously printed packaging to go from. We had to recreate all graphics and print on special stock that would allow a plastic blister to adhere to the package.

Which campaign are you most proud of?
Texas A&M banner order. We made a commitment to deliver an order on time. Due to a shipping error by the courier, the goods were going to miss the event date. Two of us jumped on a plane, went to the courier hub, picked up the banners ourselves and drove them to the event two hours ahead of time. This showed our client that we will stop at nothing to deliver a quality product on time.
What was your first project?
It’s been nearly 20 years, so it is hard to remember, but I believe it was a button order. For who…I have no idea! lol
