Owner / Founder
In June 2005, while still employed with Holman Leasing, I created a retail
business. Having the knowledge of both retail and graphic designing, I
decided to merge them together to create a retail store that offers custom silk
screening, embroidery, and promotional items. I handled all phases of the
business including; sales, custom artwork, customer service, accounting,
ordering product, maintaining a retail store setting, and web design.
I managed over 600 clients in my customer database. This included a
chemical company that I built a website for and I supplied over 50 different
products for them to sell to their 2500 stores nationwide.

I have also been trained in the service department to cover the position when
