RUTH HYNDMAN DESIGN

In 1998, I got hired by an 18 year veteran of the trade who was looking for an assistant. I carried his stuff around, mixed his mortar, cleaned his tools, told him jokes and asked him tons of questions... Two years later I began taking on small tile projects for family and close friends, e.g. backsplashes, counter tops, simple floors. I made crappy business cards that said "Team Ted Tile" mainly as a joke about my own self-importance, and how I think I'm awesome, and how I bust my hump like a whole team. After another 2 years I passed the license exam and have been operating under the name Team Ted Tile ever since.

Also known as: Team Ted Tile, TTT
