Shabnam Agahi
Designer
I have been a graphic designer for more than 14 years, I was born and raised In Tehran, Iran, and moved to the U.S. in 1999 to continue my education. I am a graduate of California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, where I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Graphic Design. I have experience in advertising, branding, identity, and print in a variety of industries such as health care, education, direct mail, and entertainment. I love creating a unique, clean, out-of-the-box, intelligent design and pushing the boundaries.
I enjoy painting, hiking, indoor cycling, and traveling. I love spending time with friends and family and painting when I’m not at work. Painting allows me to create and immerse myself in my imagination. Being able to transfer the image that you had in your head on a piece of paper is a wonderful feeling.
Rex
Collections / Security
My name is Rex and I am a rescue Bluenose Pitbull. I love chasing after toys and chewing them up into small pieces. My job as a security guard is fun, I sleep and snore during my shift, and then I go home to my parents where we go for walks at the park. My creativity is great when it comes to finding my toys around the house, although my toys don’t last long. My chewing problem is out of control! Thank you for visiting!
