Arnion Ministries is a prophetic healing and deliverance ministry founded after much prayer in 2009 by Prophetess Vickie Lee, M. Div. I came to a saving knowledge of Christ some 25 years ago and accepted the call to ministry not long thereafter. It has been the great joy of my life! Read more>>

I met Alexia Wellons, the other half of Scarlet Letters Copywriting, in 2004 when we both worked for Universal Studios Home Entertainment. We had similar interests and backgrounds (Literature! Vintage-style clothing! Travel!) and immediately hit it off. Read more>>

My love for photography began back in 2005 when I was the designated photographer on a trip to Paris with family and friends. Exploring the city, the art, and the culture was inspiring to say the least. I contemplated photography as a career, but chose to err on the side of caution. Read more>>

At a very young age, my mother immersed me in the arts through ballet and music, which propelled me to study many forms of art and design, including graphics and floral design. After working in the corporate world for a few years, I combined my passion for the arts and business experience to open a boutique design studio in 2005. Read more>>

My story starts with a divorce. Faced with having to go forth into the world and earn a living again, after spending years at home with kids, I decided to go big! I wanted to open a brewery. I’d been drinking craft beer with some girlfriends for a while, and I felt that starting a brewery was something my new husband, Alastair, would enjoy helping me with. Read more>>
Mark and Shane Siezega
So Mark started the company in 1983, back when there was no internet, SLR cameras, or anyone with a clue about what a film location agency was. In order to gain a client base, he had to meticulously go door to door in the Hancock Park neighborhood, and finally landed a gig for the film Flash Dance, followed by the next film Beverly Hills Cop, and the rest is history.

I’ve always loved music. When I was little I used to dance around the living room and sing while my concert pianist father played the piano. I remember my Dad taking me to a production of The Sound of Music as a little girl and I just was so moved and cried. The lady sitting next to us was struck by this and said, “It’s amazing how much she feels the story and songs.” Read more>>
Jann Hoffman
When I was in elementary school, I was bullied terribly because of being overweight and undiagnosed ADHD. It was traumatic and sad. The ironic part is kids would open up to me and tell me their problems. I gave good advice. Read more>>

The first visual memory I have is that of the white upright piano in Singapore, Hell and the dark forces lived at the bottom, Heaven and the Angels at the top. They would play battles through my fingers and I was hooked. Read more>>
Melanie Coddington
After growing in Humboldt and earning two college degrees there, I found myself commuting from my Aunt’s house in Bakersfield to a job in Burbank that I hated. In all my free time I was watching HGTV, reading Architectural Digest, and mentally re-decorating every room I walked into. Read more>>
Ilana Rosenberg
From the moment that I decided to use sequined children’s dress-up high heels as the escort cards for my Bat Mitzvah, I was enamored by event planning. That celebration was filled with bright colors, playful centerpieces, and exuberant dancing, and it was a perfect mirror for who I was as a 13-year-old girl. Read more>>

I grew up in front of the TV and I knew right away that I wanted to act, direct and make movies but as a child, I had no idea of how to make that happen. As luck would have it, my elementary school in Virginia was near a college campus and the theatre director selected me and six of my classmates to be in what would be my first play, “Miesha and the Seven Little People”.

Three years ago, I was at a photoshoot with my (now) fiancé, Derek, for his improv group, The Resistance. I had never met the photographer previous to that, but I attended to help out with whatever the group needed, including styling. I loved watching him shooting– seeing how he set everything up, and how that translated to the frame. Read more>>

It seems in every class where adults study healing, I find two reoccurring themes. Often we are the ones in our families who were the sensitive ones, the dramatic ones, the helpers or the outsiders. The second repeating story involves a critical experience of trauma – shock or strain. Read more>>

While it has been the best and most rewarding experience of my life, it has also been the most challenging. When you become equipped to handle the bumps in the road you have encountered, life tends to give you even more bumps to negotiate. Life is what is happening while we are busy making p[ans, and it rarely goes the way we plan for it too. Read more>>

I’ve always loved psychology. When I was little, I daydreamed that one day I’d sit across the room from someone who would confide their problems in me. (Who but a psych geek would fantasize like that?) But since every good story always involves an unexpected turn of events, instead of pursuing psychology right away, I took a detour—which resulted in a Bachelor’s in Biochemistry. Read more>>

We have expanded our capabilities of the years to supply a wide range of metal fabricating techniques including precision metal stamping, tool and die, CNC machining, wire EDM and laser cutting.

I have always enjoyed telling stories. In elementary school, I loved writing and presenting book reports which led to me being elected editor of my high school yearbook. For a college, I chose Boston’s Emerson College where I got on the ground experience working at my college newspaper and the opportunity to intern at one of the top radio stations in New England.
