A friend of Ringelstetter’s since the sixth grade, Jake Leek came to Atomic7 seeking a new venture after deciding that he was in need of a change. Ringelstetter happily welcomed him aboard and together they worked on the prints, frames, and canvas stretching. During this time, Ringelstetter expressed an interest in screen- printing, but went on to say that he didn’t really have the time for it.
They began discussing this in greater depth and soon Ringelstetter learned that Leek had been teaching himself the ins and outs of screen-printing. It wasn’t long before he launched his own company, Sicks Printing. Ringelstetter found this inspiring and is still so grateful for the time Leek spent with Atomic 7, and the work they’re able to do together with Leek’s new business.
