M Plein
Mary is also a native of the Brainerd Lakes
area. A graduate of Brainerd High School, AA degree from Central Lakes
College; Mary wed her long-time friend and schoolmate, John, in 1977.
Mary & John then moved to St. Cloud continuing their education at
St. Cloud State Univ. where they persued the arts and sciences.
Soon an offer came to John for a good-paying/steady
job but it meant a move to St. Paul... so off they went. Six quick years
and two toddlers later, they returned to the Brainerd Lakes area wondering
why they ever left in the first place! Then, settling in a beautiful,
quiet country village known as Ideal Township, they built a home, raised
their two sons and focused toward their dream of working as entrepeneaurs
from home.
In the early 80's they began making their
dream a reality with their first graphic design home biz, 'Golden Oaks
Graphics'. Aptly named as their home is surrounded by rolling hills of
beautiful oak trees that turn a beautiful gold in the autumn. It was the
beginning of what would be a lifetime endeavor.
Years later, they put GOG on-hold and Mary
began working with the production team of In-Fisherman magazine. She did
layout and digital prep of the Walleye In-Sider magazine and she stayed
on for four great years, polishing her precise production techniques.
In 19?? Mary left In-Fisherman and joined up with Nelson Graphic Design
agency of Baxter. Initially working in production on the Berkley Fishing
account, Mary was soon promoted to production management for the agency.
After 5 terrific years with the team at Nelson Graphics, Mary decided
it was time to "take the leap" and work with her best friend
and husband John at their own newest venture... JM Plein Consulting.
Today Mary still does what she does best...
production. Working in the print field of JM Plein Consulting, Mary designs
and produces magazines, catalogs, brochures, maps, advertisements, and
kiosk signage just to name a few. Mary's years of experience working with
the graphic design and printing industries brings along a wealth of knowledge
and information to get the best results for each job.
