Following time in Sydney, Australia with Iconic.au, Taler returned to Las Vegas to help open Stitch Factory as a Partner and Creative Director. In 2017, Taler joined with Hsieh to begin the revitalization of Fergusons Downtown, a passion project that combines community and impact with Las Vegas history and local artisans. With an anticipating soft opening in fall of 2019, Taler has brought a distinct eye to the project, with touches that preserve the area’s history while creating functional space for the community to connect.
