Andi’s work for the 2010 Cultural Olympiad was nothing short of spectacular. Under intense deadline pressure Andi created a series of highly successful event programs, catalogues and other marketing collateral for this groundbreaking Olympic & Paralympic arts festival. Her work was consistently inspired, clean and well organized. She was always calm, pleasant and capable of discerning our needs and desires with minimal direction.
About Us.
We’ve been building our business since 2003, but our passion for sports started much earlier. We know the sports business and its challenges first hand. We’ve navigated non-profits, board and stakeholders approvals, limited budgets, and tight timelines, and have come out successfully on the other side.

High Performance Creative isn’t just a tagline, it’s how the Epic team approaches life! Our clients and partners are guaranteed:
Enthusiastic, passionate and energetic conversations;
Polished, professional and refined deliverables;

Our Services
The core of our services involves building stellar brands, websites and graphic design. Every project is unique, so we have also found ourselves collaborating successfully in areas such as content and social media marketing, and app development. Once in a while, a blue unicorn of a project comes along where we get to design a merchandise line or tackle a building, RV or car wrap.
