  After working at Creative Printing Services for 12 years, I left and joined HDA Inc., a wholesale book and magazine distributor, to expand my knowledge of the industry. I have now returned back "home" to Creative Printing Services as an Account Executive and could not be happier! Since Creative Printing Services is a print broker, I am able to use my years of experience and expertise to offer my customers consistent solutions to their varied printing challenges, while providing them with a professionally finished product at a good value. Since we understand so many different kinds of printing processes, and have so many different resources with which we can work, I can consistently respond to my customers "Yes we can!" Show less
