I was raised just outside of the city of Philadelphia, PA. I value creativity, honesty, loyalty and often wear my opinions on my sleeve. It makes for very sincere relationships in business and life.
The past 15 years have been a true circus, but I wouldn’t change a thing about it. The Factory was built entirely from the ground up with hard work, a relentless attitude, and a solid work ethic. I share in the thrill and fear of owning a business and because of that, I take each clients dream of success very seriously.

Angel has been diligently “working” at The Factory for too many years to count. Born in Los Angeles, CA and raised in Reno, NV the west coast has always been his home, with his future plans to colonize Mars having been increasingly riddled with delays.
At The Factory, Angel switches roles from In-house DJ and Web/Graphic Designer although his true passion is in the game of Foosball.
Angel holds an Associate of Applied Science degree in Graphic Communications as well as a library card he never uses.
Off the clock he can be found hiking up a mountain peak or on a 72 hour jaunt but more than likely he’s just streaming Youtube videos on a dog walk.

Having grown up on both coasts, there’s nothing that Izzy hasn’t seen. From the chill vibes of the west coast, to the mean streets of New York where he adopted the moniker ‘Big Pun’ for his impeccable word play. Izzy’s experiences have molded him to become the great observer and voice of reason at The Factory. His sense of judgement is evident in his meticulous design choices and his great client relationships.
Izzy’s judgement is so legendary that it is rumored that his pupils can move independently from one another giving him the gift to literally see both sides of an argument.
When court is adjourned, ‘the honorable’ likes to spend his time collecting 90’s footwear, cycling and partaking in the works of the great Dr. James Naismith.

For a couple years I lost my passion to pursue my dreams from so many failures in the past but on September 10, 2018 my heart was telling to ride my bicycle 300 miles west to San Francisco over the Sierra Mountains. I knew I was scared, I’ve never been camping and I had no purpose in life.
I trusted my heart, I quit my job, packed my gear and I took off on this adventure. I learned to camp, how to handle life & death situations and trusting my heart. It was one of the biggest accomplishment once I arrived at the golden gate bridge. But little did I know, this adventure became a love story. I spontaneously met a girl from Israel in China Town. she challenged me by inviting me to Hawaii. As I was looking at my saving account. I pack my bags, and flew to Hawaii and spent a great time hiking, snorkeling, exploring, riding mopeds and enjoying the beautiful weather with her.
When I finally came back home with just enough to pay for my rent, I felt like this was the beginning of knowing who I truly was. I now have a sense of purpose and becoming a better version of myself everyday to pursue my dreams.
I’m Hannah, a horror movie enthusiast who’s mastered the art of watching scary films without spilling my snacks–mostly. When I’m not getting my adrenaline fix from spooky flicks, I’m on a never-ending quest for the best food spots in town. If it’s tasty, I’m there, fork in hand and ready to dive in.
I’ve also got a bit of a snow obsession. Winter hits, and I’m out there building snow forts like I’m auditioning for a survival show. And let’s not forget the snowball fights–I’ve got an arm like a snow-covered cannon.
But when I’m not dodging imaginary ghosts, chowing down, or dominating the winter wonderland, I’m knee-deep in website design. I love taking a blank screen and turning it into something that not only looks amazing but could probably double as a set piece for a horror movie.
So, if you’re into spooky stuff, great food, snowy adventures, and slick web design, we’re definitely going to vibe!
