Outside of work she enjoys spending time with her rescue dogs.

Lucille has been working in the print industry for years and joined the company in 2017. She primarily works in customer service, but isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty and help in the back. Outside of work, she loves spending time with her family and her Labrador mix. The warm weather always encourages a garden too.

Diana Vargas

Kevin Cockrell

Kevin was an adventurer and received his degree in graphic design from a school in Kansas. He’s been with us since 2012 and you’ll come to rely on his calm professionalism just like we have. From projects simple to complex, he will help you create a design you’ll be proud of. Kevin enjoys watching movies and reading when he’s not designing.

Bryan Gachuz

Graphic Designer

Bryan is eager to help design your projects whether it is a simple business card, or a complete menu redesign, you will love the layout. He has years of design and print experience that makes him a valuable team member. Bryan enjoys spending time with his family and playing video games outside of work.

Ric Valdes

Delivery Driver

Ric Valdes

Ric has been around since the founding of the company, though he had been in the printing industry for years before. While Susan was busy getting clients, Ric was busy printing the orders in the garage at their house. As the business grew he slowly transitioned to be the delivery driver. Make sure you wave to him when you see him out and about! He enjoys playing guitar and keeping up with current events.

Cayman Valdes

Shop Dog and Security Supervisor

Cayman

Cayman has been the shop dog for a few years now. He was rescued while running down a busy street here in Albuquerque, and his then-owner decided to give him away. His daily duties include following whoever has food, barking at delivery drivers and other strangers, playing a solid game of fetch, naps, and watching for any potential danger. At home he enjoys patrolling for birds and cats, watching some TV, and being cuddled.

Charlotte Valdes

Shop Dog and Inventory Specialist

Charlotte hit the jackpot when she was adopted from a shelter in Valencia County. Charlotte’s daily duties include sitting on laps, playing fetch, barking until Cayman plays with her, going on walks, taking naps, and making sure paper is in stock. At home she enjoys rough housing, watching some TV, and being cuddled.
