ABOUT US
HELLO
Their relationship spans back to 1978—from middle and high school (Go Owls!), to college roommates (Go Bobcats!) and then out into the real world. After college, Tony went into the Army and Joe went into the business world.
At a local party years later the seeds were sown and a partnership was in the making. The accountant and the salesman, a marriage built in heaven, isn’t that what they always say?
So the company started in 2006, oh yeah, the worst recession since the 30's, great timing! Each year since, the company has grown, added capabilities, added staff, and has built great long lasting relationships with its clients.

Michele Reifer
We’ve now lived in Maryland longer than any other place in my life, so I guess that makes me a Maryland crab! I am married and have one child. I am passionate about family, food, and working out-in that order! At Kojak, we have a commitment to complete customer satisfaction and my goal is to exceed your expectations. I like to make my clients feel like they are my only customer!
Stacey Fauntleroy
I relocated back to Maryland from New York in 2011, and prior to joining Kojak, I gained my experience through a variety of print, customer service, and marketing positions. In 2013, I transitioned into my account management role at Kojak, where I continue to build strong client partnerships and deliver exceptional solutions. I am very passionate about what it takes to go above and beyond to make sure my customers are happy and satisfied with their product. I will give you the attention and service you would expect from a friend! Currently, I reside in Middletown with my husband Brent and our two dogs Rudy and Roscoe.
Mellisa Zaluski
I was born and raised in the Midwest (Chicago) and moved to the East Coast in 2010. Most claim, I have a heavy accent, I beg to differ, at least when I say “Maryland” , I annunciate the d! Also, can someone please tell me where “down the road” is?! I share a special bond with my family and friends and continue to be successful at raising a family, I attribute this to my ability to schedule, plan and handle multiple tasks at once. Along with spending time with my family and friends, I enjoy exercising, camping, living life to the fullest, and belly laughing.
Kelli Evers
I’m excited to have recently joined the Kojak Graphics family. My background includes marketing and retail sales, as well as administrative and executive support. I’m hopeful those years of experience, along with a knack for the creative details, will help me to provide the absolute best in client service. And an unexpected benefit – I get to work alongside my childhood BFF, Michele!
I was raised in a military family and moved seven times before settling in Northern Virginia, where I’ve lived happily for more than 30 years. As a sports fanatic, I love a good game and especially enjoy rooting for the DC pro teams. Yep, that includes my always controversial burgundy & gold – HTTR! A few more of my favorite things: photography, live music, beach towns, lunch with friends, office supplies, iced tea, Twitter, and lazy Sundays spent with my husband, our two teen boys, and a cute, but bossy French bulldog.
Vicki Foertschbeck
Hi! My name is Vicki Foertschbeck, pronounced “Firtch-beck”. It’s not as scary as it looks, and very much a conversation piece. You can just call me Vicki (like Madonna or Beyonce). I’ve been a Marylander all of my life, and spent many summers sailing on The Chesapeake Bay with my family. I’m currently landlocked in Frederick County, but each year, my wanderlust draws me to a little Caribbean island called Anguilla. I consider it my home away from home. When I’m not livin’ in Anguilla, I welcome new adventures, spend time with family and friends, attend concerts, practice yoga, and occasionally pick up an adult coloring book! On my bucket list: ziplining through a rain forest and visiting a Sloth Sanctuary. It will happen one day! I live with my husband Frank, Jackson the Cockapoo, Baxter J. Rufous III, the catdog and Pippa the cat. I adore my 2 adult children – Elizabeth is 27, residing in Tampa, FL and my son Michael is 23 and lives with us here at the zoo.
Danielle Featherstone
I am a lifelong Maryland resident. I graduated from University of Baltimore with a Degree in Corporate Communications. I love spending time with my family, meeting new people, and traveling. My husband and I do not have any children, but have 3 nephews. Two human boys from my husband's side, and on my side, my sister's only son- Her vegan cat named Nightmare.
