Conan the Signman

At A-Max Sign Co., we design, fabricate, install / remove, and service all kinds of signs and beyond, large or small - we do it all. People always say "Oh, I didn't know you did that." Yes, we do that too!

I am honored to have been given opportunities to prove myself, improve myself AND my surrounding environment. I am still not yet as good as I will ever be - I don't think myself as the best but I am amongst the better, and so I continue to strive to be a positive influence on those I have the privilege of making personal relationships with.

I have worked most every position in the sign business, since 1986, from errand boy and sweeping floors, to fabrication, to painting, wiring, installation, and service of electrical signs. Then in 1990 I was given the opportunity to take over our 1 person design team at the time, prior to even having computerized capabilities (that's right, I was a draftsman doing drawings with pencil and paper). From there, I learned how to navigate taking sales design projects and making them work in the real world. 30 + years of continuing education in and around the world of Signs, Graphics and Design. For me, It's all about the details. From who-does-what-when to "when will it be done?" Font Type to File Set Ups, Materials and Colors, Fit and Functions, Vendor Sourcing to Coordinating with G.C.'s - from Start to Finish and everything in between.

going on 30 years in this role now, taking the design intentions for a world of variables in the sign industry and making it work in the real world to satisfy everyone from sales to clients; file set ups, scheduling, structural requirements, vendor ordering, fabrication, paint, wiring, (neon is my niche specialty) assembly - coordination of / cooperation with all depts. to all things relative to mounting and install coordination capabilities. How can I help? In the absence of no one else willing or able - you get me! (but some people don't get me...) Proven track record of reliability, loyalty and resilience to overcome obstacles we all face every day. For me, the devil is in the details, and I work to outwit the devil every day!
