There goes the neighborhood.
We promise to keep the yard mowed and the noise down.
Our business isn't all fun and games. Except it's pretty fun.
And sometimes we play games.
Susan Religa, Principal
Ms. Religa is a hand talker, an inventor of acronyms (IOA), and a phenomenal parallel parker (just ask her). Clients are wowed by her marketing cojones and campaign prowess. She, meanwhile, is impressed by decisiveness and sparkly things.
She indulges in a self-hug when presented with an appealing idea or moment, such as fresh cookies, a nice vacation, or free sandwiches. Though she loves Skittles, she is unwilling to eat the orange ones because “they taste like baby aspirin,” or the green ones, because she finds them generally offensive and “nasty.”
She is brilliant at accents and voices, including high-pitched, exaggerated Southern, and vaguely European. For her 12th birthday, she had a General Lee cake. Not surprisingly, subsequent birthdays have always fallen short.
