The Covenant Art Team

James Staake

Co-Owner & CEO

James is the driving force behind Your American Flag Store, leading the company from its startup phase through national cancellation, and its bold transition into Covenant Art.

Through every season — growth, adversity, and reinvention — James has remained hands-on as Master Carpenter and Head of Product Development.

James continues to design and build heirloom-quality pieces that transform homes and offices into spaces that reflect faith, freedom, and legacy.

Ginger Staake

Co-Owner & Artist

Since day one, Ginger has been at the heart of every flag we’ve made. She moves seamlessly from creative design to hands-on quality control, making sure every detail is just right.

When it comes down to it, there isn’t a single product that leaves our shop without her personal touch — and her dedication is woven into every stitch, star, and stripe.

With Covenant Art Ginger is excited to finally get to make more art that has been calling her for decades.

He brings far more than capital to the table. With nearly five decades of proven business experience, Tim offers strategic insight, steady leadership, and a clear vision for the future. His partnership signals a new era for Covenant Art—one defined by growth, resilience, and a bold path toward national recognition.

Robbie Jones

Production Foreman

Robbie was the very first carpenter to join our team — and from day one, he helped lay the foundation of who we are today.

Since 2021, he has grown into a true master of the craft, becoming an expert in every corner of the shop. His attention to detail show up in every project that leaves our doors.

Over the past five years, Robbie hasn’t just been an employee — he’s become family. Through COVID, through the challenges of being canceled and debanked, Robbie never wavered. He stood firm. He showed up. And he refused to let this business be silenced.

Robbie brings more than his hard work — he brings heart. His steady presence, positive spirit, and sense of humor keep the shop energized and remind us why we love the work we do together.

We’re proud to have him on this journey.

Max Staake

Our Founder

Max was just six years old when he told his parents, James and Ginger, that they should start a family business… making American flags.  “It would be great if we worked together,” he said.

Even at six years old, his work ethic stunned everyone. He was in the shop with his dad 5–7 days a week, learning, building, observing. On every business trip, Max was there — not as a spectator, but as part of the team. 

Today, at 14, that same passion drives him forward. Max is now studying 3D modeling and advanced design, preparing to help lead the next chapter of our company. His vision is clear: fuse handcrafted American quality with the precision of modern technology. 

What began as a little boy’s idea, become a thriving business built on family, faith, hard work, and the American spirit. And Max is just getting started.
