Can you touch your nose with your tongue?

Nope.  I bet I could touch yours, though.

What is your greatest work accomplishment with Vital?

Delegating. It’s very difficult for me to not just pick up the ball and run with it myself. My hands have been spanked numerous times, but it is getting easier. I’ve also enjoyed learning the crazy world of permitting. It’s put me in touch with some very capable people who have done a tremendous job mentoring me.

Why did you get into this industry?

During my studies in commercial art, I came across a curious machine that sat in the corner of the classroom and was largely ignored. I dusted it off, began to tinker with it  and instantly fell in love. The Gerber Signmaker IVB, which is generally thought of as a dinosaur now, was cutting edge for the sign industry and computer cut vinyl was in its infancy back then. Being a part of the evolution in this industry has been a fascinating ride. I am constantly amazed at the new and innovative technologies being developed that allow us to stay in step with the constantly changing needs of the consumer.
