When my company shared space at Q world HQ (and I was still single), I'd often find myself working Xmas day. Sad and lonely? Nah; Tom was always working too. We'd get Chinese for lunch.

Daughter of former Q'er Jim Frenza. Fond memories of Christine letting me use her drafting table to draw with my crayons at Quorum's original office. Ever so fond of the amazing Q team.

Never a client-proper. But my role as a member of non-profit boards continuously brought me into contact with Tom and the crew as they stepped up to give back to the community they live in.

I thank Q for the life lessons, creative experiences, and lifelong friendships. Who knew business trips could be so cultural! I still miss the travels, music, and wisdom that are a part of Q.

Post-Q winter party (2010), congregating in the office to clean off a massive mirror that Cafe Zola had used to serve food on! Everyone was still all dressed up and bagging up left overs.

“Blaine got a few drinks in me and took me upstairs.” For the next few years, I repeatedly told Ben that no, I did not take Alissa upstairs. Well, we did but it was a just a tour of the apartment.

1st one in the office after an electrical storm, I discovered a fried stat machine. It was blinking, buzzing & smelled like ozone. I was afraid it would attack me before I could unplug it.

Q = "cool", but that so poorly describes them. Q is tops on the "think outside of the box" scale. I love how you can put a face with the name at Q. You can also put a song, a poem, or a catch phrase.

Q came into my life a million years ago when Jocelyn came up with a design plan for the Ann Arbor Film Festival — which was done pro bono because Q is so cool and Tom is so generous.
