Jenn

Fresh and energetic best describes the artful approach Jenn gives to her work. Always asking the questions that further push the strategy and design relationship, Jenn has the unique ability to create pieces that work hard, are on-trend, on message and that stay top-of-mind. The eternal optimist, she is also known around QLC for her “punny” jokes, adding random and often head-scratching humor.

Terry

Terry is founder and CEO of Quiet Light Communications (QLC). He works intimately with clients and team members on strategy and brand development. Aside from his day-to-day work with client partners, Terry’s role is as a team builder — hiring great people, then giving them the latitude and the tools needed to help them, and our clients, succeed.

Vinnie

Vinnie built his multidisciplinary creative skills while attending SCAD – one of the first colleges to offer a motion graphics major. Family man, jokester, space nerd, coach and college professor—Vinnie not only wears a lot of hats in his personal life but also in his professional one. Given that, it shouldn’t be a stretch to believe there isn’t much on the creative side Vinnie can’t do. Brought on board to help with design work, Vinnie ended up helping build a strong and thriving video department. With his leadership, we’ve been able to offer our clients in-house video production that passes muster with most production houses.

Audrey

Audrey is the hub of every project at Quiet Light. She possesses a superb eye for detail and understands the ins and outs of even the most complex projects. Her vast experience in production management means she is a ninja master, ensuring project specs are correct, timelines and budgets are followed, and the finished product meets and even exceeds our clients’ expectations.

Jean-Pierre

A social media guru, Jean-Pierre brings thoughtful and sharp evaluation to his work in digital analysis and SEO. He understands how to position and move a program to increase exposure and garner more likes, shares and click-throughs. And, most importantly, how to make sense of the often-nuanced results.

Nancy

Choosing the right media is one of the most critical elements of an advertising campaign. There are myriad media options from which to choose—deciding which is the most effective (and efficient) can be a daunting proposition. Thankfully, Nancy is armed with decades of media planning and buying experience, and she approaches each and every project with a keen analytical eye, leveraging the latest research, data, and technology to produce the most effective media plans to grow your business.

Brad

Brad wears many hats at Quiet Light – forecasting, finance, billing, HR and more. While our company may be small and mighty, Brad runs it like a FORTUNE 500, ensuring we remain fiscally responsible while allowing us to spread our wings and offer our clients truly out-of-the box thinking and ideas. Plus, his dad jokes are stellar!

Don

As President of Quiet Light, Don oversees all operations in the U.S. and Canada. He is responsible for the strategic development of the organization, and its clients, across all brands and industries. This encompasses development of strategic talent and resources that drive idea development for creative solutions across all mediums and platforms. His calm, thoughtful and consistent leadership has been a guiding light to the Quiet Light team, and will hopefully come in handy when playing with his first grandson!

Bethany

Bethany is our PR and social media guru. Gifted in identifying a unique angle or opportunity in the social media space, Bethany helps our foodservice clients navigate this minefield with concerted ease, writing both great content and on-point strategic plans. And, her hospitality background overflows to her approach to social media: fiercely in favor of listening and creating an incredible customer service experience online.

Patrick

Leading the charge of all things creative at Quiet Light, Patrick brings his sharp eye for design and creative strategy to myriad industries and audiences across the b2b food production and manufacturing space. He has an uncanny knack for sensing what might be the next best thing for our clients, and whether it’s video production, creative planning or a photo shoot with a fussy puppy, Patrick has seen it all and is always eager to bring our clients’ brands to life.

Daniel

Daniel is an experienced strategist for both marketing and sales. Skilled at all things digital, he brings a talent for focusing on audiences throughout the sales funnel, whether it be SEO, email marketing, eCommerce or digital advertising. And, he closes the loop when it comes to reporting on what’s working, what’s not, and how to get closer to the bullseye.

Ellen

For more than a decade, Ellen has guided clients to reach their marketing communications goals. Her depth of experience in creating winning communications strategies and seeing projects big and small to completion is unmatched. Her calm disposition and no-nonsense approach mean our clients get top-notch, professional service from a highly-experienced (and really down-to-earth) project manager.

Quentin

With more than a decade of experience in a vast range of talents from website design, branding, illustration and print in industries ranging from multinational Fortune 500 organizations to local mom-and-pop shops, Quentin is what we would call an insightful, passionate art director. Quentin brings this passion to everything he does—which includes Rockford’s biggest Lakers fan, and chef of the best bison BLT in the region.

Pavlo

Whether you are fluent in code or can barely turn on your computer, Pavlo can take your digital development where it needs to go. In the confusing world of web development, he brings rare clarity to the backend of what is a mystery to many. No stranger to coded languages, his full-stack capabilities are the stuff myths are made of.

Alicia

Supermom, translator, diplomat — Alicia is the conduit between our clients and the digital realm. She’s extraordinarily adept at taking complex concepts and terminology and translating them into easily understood bites. (Yet she can never seem to keep track of her water bottle…hmmm.) Analytics are just numbers until the dev team teases out their meaning, telling a story that is useful in making meaningful, actionable business decisions.

Katie

Strategist, marketing guru and project manager extraordinaire, Katie makes crafting winning communications plans look easy. Her easy-going nature, and “I already took care of that” diligence make her a valuable (and fun) team leader. She is also famous at QLC for her “Katie’s Cocktails” – flavorful drinks that marry her creativity with her love for all things food.

Leo

While he may not scare off any intruders, he’s certain to lick our visitors into submission. Leo is a German Shepard with an affinity for head scratches, belly rubs and friendly “hellos.” So, when you come for a visit, don’t be frightened by his size – he is a gentle giant, loyal to the end.

Colby

As chief office dog, Colby takes his title seriously and makes sure everyone is happily greeted. He makes rounds stopping by and visiting (code for treat acquisition) with everyone in the office — multiple times throughout the day. All this visiting does take its toll, however, so his afternoons are usually spent “recovering” (napping) on the lobby floor in case anyone needs to be accompanied on a walk.

Tucker

As a licensed therapy dog, Tucker is a calming force in the office. He is happy to offer his zen-like petting services whenever anyone needs a pick-me-up. And his peaceful demeanor makes for a quiet and calm office companion.

Ralph

While Ralph looks like a cat, he is really a dog (in another life). A lover of naps and finding good places to nap, Ralph is all business when it comes to chilling out.
