Happy one year anniversary to our very own Website Specialist & Graphic Designer, Noelle! We can't thank her enough for injecting a whirlwind of enthusiasm and creativity into our office over the past year. Before working at ASI, what was the most unusal or interesting job you've ever had?    I had a summer job at a vineyard taking care of the vines, picking grapes, and working the grounds.  I learned so much and found it so enjoyable getting to work outside every day. When you have 30 minutes of free-time, how do you pass the time?      I have recently started gardening!  My fiance and I bought our first home last year, so I am going to take this summer to work in our yard and learn more…

ENJOY! 1.

We love Sheboygan Falls!  It is our hometown, after all.  And it has a fascinating historic heritage surrounded by beautiful Wisconsin scenery!  So, it only made sense for our next customer spotlight to feature a unique duo who also calls Sheboygan Falls their home!  Our relationship with these two businesses blossomed in 2016 when they called on us to create their new logos and redesign their websites.  These projects were done simultaneously, resulting in similar layouts to emphasize unity within the city.   Introducing... The City of Sheboygan Falls/Utilities and the City of Sheboygan Falls Police Department!

Hello!  My name is Noelle Timler and I am a Graphic and Web Designer from Sheboygan, WI.  I recently graduated from the Graphic and Web Design program at Lakeshore Technical College and had the honor of working for small business owners around the Sheboygan County area.  I was able to create websites, logos, and print materials for these clients that helped them gain more confidence as business owners and in return gave me valuable experience in the world of graphic design. During high school, I struggled to find passions that could be turned into a career.  I ended up graduating from Sheboygan South and going to a UW extension while I was undecided.  I struggled for over a year trying to figure out a career goal that would bring me…
