I just picked up our custom made poem on Saturday... it was perfect and just what I hoped for. Working with Sam was great. I wasn't sure how the process would work. I was happy to find out there were drafts provided, and I could give feedback and suggestions. It was very collaborative, which is ideal for this type of thing. This was for a commissioned poem, not just the kind you can get in person. This was much more personal and detailed for the subject of the poem. The best part about this is, it is hand typed on a typewriter... where can you get that done? No printers.... No AI... real human creativity! We are very happy with the poem and would definitely recommend Sam. She also hit the birthday deadline, which I wasn't sure would be possible. It worked out perfectly. Thanks Sam! You can get an on the spot spontaneous or a very personal poem creation... whichever you like... I also know she does henna as well. read more

What a fun place in downtown Portland if you are an anime lover! It has a lot of curated, cute,…read moreand fun merchandise and still has the fun Portland vibe because there were 3 of the sweetest dogs that come up to greet you. Lots of interesting finds here, more heavy on the Pokemon side - as they even have special curated cards. Also it's really nice that they have an upstairs lounge area where they have a spot with some free snacks and just is nice place to chill. Also the service was very friendly and informative, especially on some of their high end curated Pokemon cards.

A cute store to shop at especially if you love Pokémon!…read more When I first visited this store, the first thing that caught my eye was the huge and inflatable Eevee outside the store. It was super cute and fun to take pictures with. The store staff locks the door from the outside, so you have to flag down a staff member to let you in. I thought that was strange, but I realized they are probably doing that for anti-theft purposes since they do carry a lot of expensive items. Walking-in, I was amazed with the décor and selection. It was like I was walking through a store from Japan itself. There was a good variety of items with stuff from the Pokémon company to stuff created by small business owners. I ended up getting 4 Pokémon prints to hang in my room that were created by a small business owner. They had a deal for buy 3 get 1 free, so I could not refuse especially since the prints were so cute. I liked how they had deals like that for a lot of things. When I checked out, they even gave me a free custom sticker. My only critique is the prices. The prices are generally on the higher side for both the imported and custom made goods and this is coming from someone from LA. The 3 prints I bought totaled to around $45 which a bit high. Overall, a good experience here. I would come back if I had some extra money to spend.

I highly recommend this shop, especially if you don't mind doing a little bit of work yourself.

First time using a recruiter, coming off of a pretty terrible experience (job I signed up for was…read moreNOT the job I ended up doing, no support, no training). I was working with Kelsey, who LISTENED when I explained what I was looking for - collaborative, lateral structure, training and commitment to mentorship, and most of all CLIENTS TREATED AS HUMANS, not as paychecks. Within a day, she'd delivered a list of possibilities to me, helped me pare down my resume, and gave me guidance on how to move forward with my top choice. Three weeks of "job searching" and I've got an offer. It would've been ONE week if I'd just gone to Boly:Welch in the first place. 10/10, no notes.

From the…read moreoutset, she took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in my next role and what mattered most to me in a firm's culture and environment. Throughout the process, Kelsey's knowledge of the legal market and of individual firms proved invaluable. She ultimately connected me with a firm that truly aligned with my values and long-term career goals. Beyond the outstanding results, Kelsey is professional, intelligent, communicative, organized, thoroughly prepared, and a pleasure to work with at every stage. During our time working together, Kelsey refined my résumé, provided thoughtful insight and advice about the firms I was considering, coached me for interviews, and supported me through salary negotiations. What is often a stressful and overwhelming experience felt far more manageable with her guidance. Working with Kelsey has been one of the most impactful decisions I've made in pursuing my next role. For any attorney seeking their next position, Kelsey will be an excellent partner. She is a dedicated, strategic, and strong advocate who truly cares and offers thoughtful, practical guidance throughout the job search. I am profoundly grateful for the support she provided and recommend Kelsey with the utmost confidence.

I ordered a new keyboard, looked at a youtube repair video, and realized that I was completely out of my depth. I took it to Wolfie who deftly disassembled the entire machine, discovered that I had the wrong keyboard, then built up a replacement with pieces from the old and new keyboards. This involved careful work on plastic pieces. The result has worked great now for a couple of weeks. I give Wolfie my highest recommendation.

It went well and I had my screen replaced in about an hour. This was on a foreign phone (Oppo Find N5, a fold phone not sold in the US) that 3 other shops declined to work on. Pricing was good also, so I give this repair service an AAA+++ rating.
