SPOTLIGHT on Our 25th Year in Business

Dear Clients, Colleagues and Friends,

Welcome to the 25^th Anniversary celebration of Campos Inc!

As our 25^th year in business approached, we spent some time thinking about our past, present and future, and look forward to sharing some of our thoughts with you over the next 12 months. Join us during our birthday year, in our newsletter and our new blog, for some of our favorite memories and stories, and a closer look at who we are now and what we see ahead, in our business and in research. We will be recognizing our team, our clients, and members of the VO!CE of the Region community who have helped to make us who we are.

It's amazing when I stop to think about how many of you have been instrumental in establishing and growing our business. Some have been with us since our very first year. Thank you for your confidence in us and for your continued support. You've played a big part in the success of Campos Inc.

We started with a team of three in October of 1986, and today we boast a fantastic team of 13 professionals and 25 part-time individuals. What makes them so great is they love the work they do and servicing our clients.

Since the beginning, we have always practiced the same philosophy: helping our clients make smarter and better business decisions by delivering best in class work, keeping our eye on the ball and an eye on the horizon. We'll be holding firmly to this philosophy as we create the next chapters of the Campos Inc story.

My sincere personal thanks and gratitude to all of you who have been and are a part of the Campos Inc family. We're going to have a great time celebrating our 25^th Anniversary and invite you to think back with us, laugh with us, and look forward to what's yet to come.

Let's all pat ourselves on the back for a job well done.

Here's to another 25 years!

Q & A: New Assistant Project Manager, Natasha Rathbun

We welcome our new Assistant Project Manager, Field and Fulfillment, Natasha Rathbun, to our team this month. She is a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh and comes to us after obtaining her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration.

Q: What's your

most favorite thing about Pittsburgh?

A: The community, the sports and how everyone gets so excited for the games. I wasn't particularly a sports fan until I came to Pittsburgh, now I'm a huge Penguins fan.

Q: If you were to show someone around Pittsburgh for the first time, where would you go first and why?

A: The Cathedral of Learning on Pitt's campus. I love the interior and the architecture of the building - it's like being transported back in time. Also, if you go to the top, you have a 360-degree view of the city.

Q: What is your idea of happiness?
A: Sitting on a lake or river with a book in the shade, with a view of the mountains - feeling completely at peace with no one around.

Q: What is your chief characteristic?
A: Organization - I'm a list writer. And when I get to check something off of my list, that's what gives me great pleasure.

Q: What is your most treasured possession?
A: A genie lamp from Saudi Arabia - I got it after my 13th birthday (my Bat Mitzvah) when my guests and I sent toiletries to soldiers overseas. I received this lamp in return with a heartfelt, handwritten thank you card.
