Well, we think we're funny.

Our business isn't all fun and games. Except it's pretty fun. And sometimes we play games.

Tara Marintzer, Graphic Designer

Tara

Ms. Marintzer is a fanatical snow skier, a cutthroat volleyball player, and wicked-strong for her size. Growing up on the family farm, she used to ride pigs, as well as a goat by the name of Brownie.

She has seen “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” at least 10 times, including six consecutive Christmas viewings on VHS cassette. Clients are bowled over by her creative flourish and inventive designs. Tragically, she did not have television growing up, and was forced to play outside…and read.

She likes to add toppings such as sauerkraut and pineapple to otherwise edible pizza. And one night when she was holding her leg due to a cramp, her husband mistakenly thought she was holding a shotgun. His assumption was not entirely unfounded.
