Outside Sales ManagerFavorite Thing About Role at FASTSIGNS:
My favorite part of my role at FASTSIGNS is that I get to help new and existing business owners, I have the opportunity to work with them to help them conceptualize, develop, market, and increase, not only their name and their branding, but also their client and customer base. My second favorite part of my role at FASTSIGNS is to work with and help develop my amazing team. Without them, I would not be here.
Most Memorable Project:
My most memorable project was a client who owned several large billboards. Each one was 12' high by 48' wide. I was only contracted to print and sew the banners. Someone else would install them. Three days before the billboards needed to be changed I received a phone call from the owner. His installer had fallen and was in the hospital. He would not be able to install the new billboards. The owner was under agreement and if the billboards were not changed in time, he would lose the contract. Not wanting to let my client down, I ordered two safety/fall harnesses from Amazon and began watching YouTube videos on how to install billboards. Two days later, on a windy Saturday in October, I was 65 feet in the air, standing on a catwalk on a swaying billboard, with nothing around me to hold onto and only a safety harness clipped to a rusty wire to stop me from falling off. Did I mention I am afraid of heights? Needless to say, the job was completed and I am still doing the changeouts to this day.

Lead DesignerFavorite Thing About Role at FASTSIGNS:
I get to be a problem solver while using my creativity. Almost every day my co-workers and I get to collaborate on projects to figure out the best way to do them. It's always so interesting to hear everyone's different thought processes. It's very exciting to see all our hard work come to fruition.
Most Memorable Project:
Wolfies Pub. I was given the task of creating a logo for Bob Wolfinger's new restaurant in downtown Pittsburgh. It was a fun logo to create and he ended up going with two retrofit signs for the front of the restaurant and window graphics. We also printed and installed a wall mural that some graphic design students from Point Park College designed.

Inside/Outside Sales Read BioPhil Rock
Inside/Outside SalesFavorite Thing About Role at FASTSIGNS:
Each project presents unique challenges, providing me with the opportunity to learn something new every day. I am also passionate about collaborating with people and fostering new relationships, particularly with those who are unfamiliar with the sign industry. Through my extensive knowledge and experience in designing, building, fabricating, installing, warehousing, and now selling signs, I can effectively guide clients in identifying solutions that align with their objectives and budgetary constraints. Signs are far more significant than many realize; they are ubiquitous and can create a strong and lasting first impression.
Most Memorable Project:
My most memorable project to date has been working with Proform Products on their wayfinding signs. They required several signs, each crafted from different materials and featuring unique design specifications. With guidance and abundant support from my colleagues, I successfully completed the project seamlessly. This experience significantly boosted my confidence and helped me feel more integrated into the team.
