Yes, it's his real name. No, it wasn't inspired by that Beatles song, flying squirrels or a boxer from Philadelphia. Though if our inclinations are correct (and they always are) it's highly likely that by the end of his career our Rocky will have had a half-dozen movies made about his life—designers everywhere will desire this guy's charmed life.

Rocky came to us by way of Tucson Newspapers in December, 2006. In fact, one of his first experiences with us was at the LP&G holiday party—there's nothing like getting to see what your co-workers are really like—before diving into the job. And he still came back.

Rocky's incredible design abilities earned him accolades even before arriving at LP&G, including a 2006 ACME Award of Excellence from the Newspaper Association of America. Currently, he handles design and production work for LP&G clients. However, Leslie believes Rocky will eventually unleash his talent for the written word and use it to take Chris' job.

Away from work, Rocky has a shameless passion for music and traveling (he once flew all the way to Paris for a Radiohead concert), soccer and ping pong. Having graduated from the University of Arizona in 2005, he now spends his free time waiting anxiously for the next World Cup and making mincemeat out of Metal Slimes (don't ask).
