 The
Creative Team
LT ComDesign’s creative team is comprised of a
group of professionals and independent
contractors who excel in the visual
communication field. When dealing with any
member of our creative team, you’re sure to
find each of us to be passionate about our work,
professional, knowledgeable, and approachable.
This spirit of excellence stems from our
principal and creative director LaShaunn Tappler.
By the way, her initials make up the company
name, along with the word "ComDesign,”
which is a combination of the words “communication”
and “design.” Clever, huh? Anyway, here’s
more about her.
 Meet
LaShaunn Tappler
In 1992, LaShaunn purchased her first
Macintosh, and it’s been a love affair ever
since. With her dad being an artist and her mom
an entrepreneurial seamstress, it was inevitable
that their offspring would start and run a
successful graphic design business. Some things
are a given, you know.
In 1995, LT ComDesign was birthed with the idea
of combining strategic communications and
graphic design to produce “smart art.”
"Nowadays, people take graphics and text,
throw them on a page and consider themselves
designers," says LaShaunn. "It takes
skill, experience, and education to create
effective pieces that motivate audiences to
act."
LaShaunn was (and still is) extremely passionate
about providing these services to churches and
ministries—where she felt it was most
needed. Although she’s cultivated
relationships with many corporate clients, small
businesses and entrepreneurs, she is
super-passionate about ministry.
LaShaunn has a bachelor’s degree in business
administration and communications from Dominican
University (River Forest, IL) and will start a
joint MBA/M.S. degree program in Integrated
Marketing Communications at Loyola University in
Fall 2005 (her friends have always considered
her to be an over-achiever). She has worked as a
communications specialist for a manufacturers’
representative, communications manager for a
large telecommunications company, director of
communications for a large faith-based
organization, and thoroughly enjoys her role as
principal and creative director. And though she
only likes to admit it when it's convenient for
her, she's a perfectionist. (The fact that she's
sharing that on the world wide web is a step in
the right direction according to the
Perfectionist's 12-Step Program.)
She is a technology guru and often cites
successfully installing a wireless network for
the nine computers in her home office as the
accomplishment from which she's gotten the most
satisfaction. The icing on the cake is that a
combination of (2) Windoze (okay, Windows)
computers and (7) Macintosh computers co-exist
happily. In her spare time, LaShaunn enjoys
reading business and self-help books and
dabbling in home improvement stuff. As a matter
of fact, she recently became a self-proclaimed
Toolbelt Diva.
