WHO WE ARE + WHAT WE DO
Jamie Holleran
As co-founder and Executive Producer at Skinny Tie Media, Jamie brings together and manages all the pieces needed to take a project from conception to delivery. His experience is truly built from the ground up – starting as a tape librarian at a Pittsburgh-based production company and moving up to Executive Producer and manager of a video department at a higher education agency. He’s had experiences with a myriad of corporate, non-profit and higher education clients that have taken him not only all around the domestic United States, but earning his wings working in the likes of Malaysia, Singapore, Nova Scotia, Turkey, and more.
Nathan Wadding
As co-founder and CEO, Nathan brings energy and unbridled enthusiasm to every aspect of his role at Skinny Tie Media. While he started his career in video production in technical roles at Waynesburg University and the Pittsburgh Penguins, he learned how to marry his technical expertise with creative strategy at a Pittsburgh-based production agency, eventually becoming Director of Post Production. Today, Nathan takes pride not only in partnering with clients to help them solve their challenges, but in putting his passion into creating a culture and environment at Skinny Tie for employees and contractors to want to come to work.
