Hi, I’m Tam, originally from a small town in California, “the cowboy capital of the world.” It’s a charming western town steeped in history from the 49er gold rush, where cowboys ride, and tourists pass through on their way to Yosemite National Park. As a child, the biggest attractions were, of course, the annual rodeo, but also the Hershey Chocolate Factory and Hunt’s Tomato Plant. Yes! LOL I said Hunts, not Heinz. When it rained and the wind was just right, there was a sweet, acidic smell of tomatoes and chocolate! Odd? I know right! But I truly miss it! It was a unique smell only in my home town. 

      In that small western town, I learned essential lessons about hard work, perseverance, and tenacity. That’s where my husband and I launched our first print shop in 1999. A few years after starting the business and welcoming our first child, we embarked on a cross-country adventure to Western PA. We loaded up my printers and headed east, kinda like my pioneer ancestors did going west, except we were driving a diesel moving truck. Off to the unknown with little to nothing in our pockets. I learned early on how to accommodate my clients remotely, both my new clients and those back home. Fast forward to 2026, two wonderful children later that were raised in beautiful PA, and still happily married to my best friend—much time has passed and many changes have occurred, but here I am, still printing and loving it. I’ve acquired some extra challenges and some remarkable skills along the way; I attended college at Clarion University, studying librarianship & information science, business, and marketing, and I kept my creativity in full bloom learning digital publishing, photography, manual screen printing, embroidery, and DTF printing, just to name a few! LOL, the kids are grown and nearly out of the house, allowing my creativity to soar. I’m ready to tackle your projects and help you achieve your dreams. Lets pioneer through to find greatness together!  I would love to work with you!   – Tam
