Once again, we had the pleasure of honoring a colleague who has been with State and Federal Communications, Inc. for 10 years.  Nicolette Koozer is the in-house graphic designer who makes sure everything we create looks like it came from the same parents.  As it happens, she and I do; Nicolette is my kid sister.

She is a graduate of the Art Institute of Pittsburgh.  She came to us after spending 18 years in the D.C. area doing technical illustration and graphic design work for the military.  In fact, she was also the freelance designer with our predecessor company, State and Federal Associates, Inc. She has been at State and Federal Communications, Inc. since 2001 creating our corporate identity, conference prep, marketing pieces, and maintaining our intranet.

In acknowledging her history with the company, Nicolette shared her joy of working for a company where she appreciated having the privileged of working part-time and being active in her son’s school district in PTA and Music Boosters.

I love that our employees maintain their active life in their own school communities as well as being a part of my outstanding staff.

Congratulations to Nicolette as she joins our previous 10 year achievers–Nola Werren, Ren Koozer, and Jim Sedor.

Here is a video we made to celebrate Nicolette’s anniversary:
