Doug Cox – Company President
Doug Cox started Poster Giant in 2000 — long before Seattle lifted its ban on street-level postering. It’s that kind of vision, along with a sense of perfection and work ethic honed by years of production and touring experience, that has made posterGIANT the go-to source for clients looking to get their name out at a grassroots level.
Oscar Ingalls – Campaign Manager
Oscar is basically THAT GUY – the one who makes order from chaos… and occasionally a little chaos from order. The guy who’s calm and patient even when the world is literally falling down around him. Right at home herding cats and pirates, he prefers to get things done the easy way, but is always at the ready to do them the hard way if necessary.
All of which makes him the perfect person to insure that our campaigns – YOUR campaigns – are executed flawlessly. He’s got your back, so cross him at your own risk.
Andrew Sexton – Sales Manager
Sales Manager Andrew Sexton brings a keen love of music, politics, sports and people (not to mention an unfailing belief in Beatle-ism and a-ha! moments) to his job at posterGIANT.
He turned his Recording Arts and Entertainment Business degree into a promotions job at CBS Radio, where his enthusiasm, drive and personality parlayed themselves into a coveted job in sales. We’re lucky to have him.
Andrew’s one of those surprising people who really does fit in anywhere and everywhere – and his passion and drive certainly fit perfectly into the posterGIANT team. He’s a team player who’s keen to see how our team and yours can create a super-mega-team to help accomplish whatever goals you’re looking to achieve.
Barbara Mitchell – Copy Queen
Over the course of her career, Barbara (“Babs”) Mitchell has worn so many hats that she sometimes feels like a haberdasher.
A magna cum laude graduate of Pepperdine University, she got her start in the corporate world as an account executive for worldwide PR/marketing firm The Rowland Company, where she worked on campaigns for clients like Mercedes-Benz and the City of Los Angeles, crafting creative campaigns and turning dry or unwieldy ideas into colorful, compelling copy.
She’s spent the past two decades working in the music industry, as a label publicist (Slash, Triple X, World Domination), an indie publicity powerhouse (Death Cab For Cutie, Rickie Lee Jones, Marc Almond), band manager (The Posies, Carrie Akre), label owner and, most recently, freelance writer (The Oregonian, The Stranger, NPR’s “Song of the Day,” Portland Tribune.) She and posterGIANT president Doug Cox met working one of Bumbershoot’s biggest stages and bonded over their mutual, non-negotiable goal of flawless victory.
She seems quiet (until you get a few cocktails into her) but that’s because the wheels are always spinning. She is well-versed in the art of cat-wrangling and dreams in color.
Jamie Bellamy – Accounts Manager
Jamie Bellamy loves her little Yorkshire terrier (visit the office and you’ll get to meet little Cujo) but don’t take her for a softie. She whips our business and accounts into shape with the same discipline she brings to her love of crossfit and physical fitness.
A graduate of Seattle University’s Law School with a juris doctorate, she also received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Eastern Washington University, where she broke the school’s record in the 800 meters race.

Amy Suzanne Taggart – PG Design & Web
Amy was born with a paintbrush and easel in hand! Inspired by two very creative Aunts, she spent most of her time drawing and painting and always looking forward to art class. A career in Art or Design was not something she considered however. Very fond of music and having taught herself to play the guitar, she wanted to become an audio engineer, working with and recording bands.
At the age of 17, Amy took courses in Audio Engineering, Video Production and Music Business at the Art Institute of Seattle (against the school urging her to consider graphic design instead!). It became apparent that she was excelling in the video production program and decided to make that her major.
In 1996 Amy graduated with an AAA degree in Video Production (with Honors!). She worked in the industry for 4 years, working her way up to Production Manager, before being laid off when the company she worked for changed ownership. It was during this time of unemployment that Amy decided to teach herself HTML coding and began creating simple websites for herself, local bands and musicians, artists and photographers. She continued to do this on the side while working in the video post-production industry, eventually deciding to go back to school.
In 2002 Amy graduated from the Art Institute of Seattle with a 2nd AAA degree in Graphic Design (again with Honors and also made the Dean’s list!). Having been in school it was difficult to keep a job in the video industry so Amy found herself working in life insurance. Not creative at all, but she had continued to work on the side with bands, creating websites, CD layouts, logos and posters. As demand grew she found it difficult to juggle the requests with her day job and was encouraged to quit and do graphic & web design full time…and she’s been doing that ever since!
Amy also enjoys living an active and healthy minimalist life, following the Paleo Lifestyle and strength training. She’s an avid bowler with aspirations of becoming a PBA pro-bowler some day! She also enjoys riding motocross, target shooting and driving her mustang. Oh and cats…she loves cats and the color purple!
