I am so excited to introduce myself Rachel Narkewicz and Dean Liebau to the beautiful readers of Kibbles and Bytes. Together we will make up the Small Dog Marketing department. We’ve got some BIG shoes to fill, and couldn’t be more trilled to hit the ground running and help out in whatever way possible to gear up for the holiday season. But first let me say happy halloween, I have decided to be a butterfly, cause its time to spread my wings, and Dean well lets just say he’s rocking the captain of graphic designer look.

I was born and raised in Rutland Vermont, and my love for all four season has kept me in VT. As well as the 4 generations of Narkewicz’s that have grown up here. Talk about some serious Vermont roots, more like weeds that just won’t go away! Here at Small Dogs I will be using my skills in social media marketing, and you can find me posting on our Twitter page as well as Facebook and much more. I am so happy to be a part of a team that is passionate about the community they live and work in.

When I am not brainstorming a million new ideas for Small Dog social media sites, in store design elements, or writing these wonderful newsletters, I can be found on the ski slopes during the winter months and on my bike during the summer. My favorite pass time is taking scenic pictures, as well as friends and family members portraits. It makes for unique presents throughout the year. Now, drum roll please as I get to introduce my trusty partner and crime… Dean

After graduating with his BFA in Graphic Design from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 2013, Dean Liebau relocated to the beautiful Green Mountains of Vermont in search of new experiences, and found colder winters. Before joining the Small Dog team, Dean worked as a freelance designer, designing everything from logos and business cards to snowboard graphics and cycling uniforms. Dean also spent two years working on a newspaper creating advertisements for local businesses.

When he’s not designing, you can find him on the mountain snowboarding (maybe if your lucky you’ll find us together) or near his favorite stream fishing for trout, or really anything that will bite! Some of his favorite past times include spending long days on the beach at Presque Isle in Erie, PA and taking trips to Colorado to visit his cousin, and probably snowboard. He plans on bringing his passion for designing and enthusiastic attitude to Small Dog Electronics as the new Graphic Designer/Marketing Assistant.
