With years of experience in the design world, Paul Ficker strives for perfection in every project that comes across his desk. Finding his love for graphic design and photography was the easy part; perfecting it is what keeps him going day to day. Starting with his love for art, Paul began shooting photos as a kid and hasn t stopped since. When the digital age began, computers became a must for any photographer, so Paul moved from the dark room to the computer room. Soon after graduating from Northern Arizona University with a degree in advertising and photography, Paul moved from his home town of Phoenix, Arizona, to Juneau, Alaska, where he broadened his photographic eye across Alaska s untouched wilderness. While there, he worked for a small non-profit fish hatchery. By eagerly taking the initiative, Paul used his skills to help grow their business by creating their first advertising campaign. Going from one extreme to another, Paul decided to move back to the desert. At STG Media he brings fresh eyes to the design table. His main goal at STG Media is to push the creative envelope, and ultimately to become recognized worldwide by designing and producing ads that rise above the clutter and stand on the edge of the creative world. Paul s designs can be found on the shelves of almost every retail outlet and have appeared in over 250 National Publications. From day one, his art has hit the mark and shown real results. His background in photography and advertising has given him the creative edge to take control of every aspect of the design and production process creating the response STG Media clients come back for, time and time again.
