After two summers as a student of Moor College of Art High School Program and a stint as a student of cosmetology, I began my Graphic Design Career in 1989.

I was taught the fine art of Neon Glass-bending at a Notable, full-service Sign Company, Alto Signs, located in Southwest Philadelphia, just after spending two years Designing Stunning Hand-Painted Signs and Bulletin Displays for the Germantown YMCA.

I stayed in the sign industry and opened Empress Signs LLC. in 1995 with the goal of creating Custom Manufactured Neon Sign Products that were Artistically Designed, unlike Commercialized, Neon Signs featuring Boring Block Letter typography produced in larger sign companiesfor expedience.

Neon by Empress Signs LLC  was designed to be distinguishable, allowing our customers to exceed by standing out from the other show with signs that were particularly crafted to outshine both modern LED Signs and the more bland type-styles seen elsewhere. Thereby, Empress Signs LLC. manufactured Custom Neon Signs and Lighting that exceeded the competition in both Brilliance and Longevity.
