With over 40 years in the signage industry, I’ve worked every angle of the business, from manufacturing and installation to project management, sales and creative direction. It started during my senior year of high school at a small architectural sign company in North Hollywood, where I learned the fundamentals of sign manufacturing from the ground up. From there I moved to a firm specializing in parking structure graphics, public spaces, illuminated signs and neon, work that pushed me toward more creative applications and eventually into roles that wore multiple hats simultaneously.
Over the years I’ve been capable at virtually every aspect of the business, including installation. The only thing I never fully mastered was hand lettering, I probably didn’t stick with it long enough, though I’ll always appreciate the craft.
A stint in New York City from 2006 to 2012 broadened my perspective considerably, working across similar disciplines in a completely different market. I’ve been self-employed since returning to California in 2012, founding Designage Inc. in Burbank and building a clientele centered on high-end commercial real estate, reading construction documents, developing sign programs, and delivering quality that property managers and design firms depend on.
I spend my time strengthening my faith and molding my business into something I can be proud of.
