Ted Natzel

With an extensive background in prepress, print production and print management, Ted has served in the role of senior project manager, purchasing agent, graphics manager, quality assurance, and creative solutions provider. He is experienced in industrial, e-commerce, retail-ready, consumer packaging, point-of-purchase displays, and fulfillment solutions.

Since joining TPH nearly two decades ago, Ted has maintained a highly successful record of managing client expectations, with a focus on retail guidelines, timelines, and the shopper experience. With a constantly expanding knowledge of product and industry specifications, he provides detailed information and analysis of each project, while managing the budgets and expectations of TPH clients.

After a 4-year tour in the Marine Corps in avionics and electro-countermeasures, Ted moved back from California to be close to family in Illinois. Following a family career path in printing, he operated some of the earliest CAD systems for pre-press production and attended the College of DuPage in Illinois to complete his graphics degree. He now incorporates the use of Adobe Creative Cloud software and TOPS logistic software to create early 2D and 3D visuals and plan-o-grams that aid in the internal decision-making process of our clients.
