Amy Tippins Thorne

Chief Visionary Officer

With two successful business start-ups under her belt, Amy understands the challenges of creating and building a company.

Her passion is hearing her clients’ stories, then using them to help build their success and make their goals a reality.

This is one of the key reasons why, since 2009, RTL Digital Media has been such a solid fit for the companies it serves:  Amy has lived all the ups and downs of the business world herself, and knows what needs to be done next, no matter the situation.

Before starting a marketing communications business, she built a solid reputation in the financial services industry. At Transamerica Retirement Services, she increased sales by $100 million and was number one in sales for two years.  In other positions at Transamerica and similar firms, she also generated stellar bottom-line results.

In addition to RTL Digital Media, Amy continues to exercise her financial skills. She owns multiple investment properties and is an active investor in many different types of businesses. She also gives back—through volunteer efforts with groups including the Georgia Transplant Foundation and For The Kingdom, a group that offers camping experience for inner city kids.

Amy holds a degree in finance from Kennesaw State University. Clients are often delighted to discover that her keen analytical mind is juxtaposed with an infectious (sometimes wicked) sense of humor. She lives in a vibrant, never-quiet/never-dull household with her husband Steve, their sons Max and Mason, and, of course, lively dogs and cats. 

Sherri

Sherri Leaf Owens

Graphic Design & UX Design

Visuals That Make You Stand Out.

A highly creative problem solver, Sherri has become a key component within the RTL Digital Media Team. Sherri started her own design studio in 2009, and since then has designed for over 150 companies.

By listening to our clients’ ideas and interweaving her own creativity, Sherri has a unique skill set that lets her develop visual elements that make websites and other communications stand out, even in cluttered marketplaces. This provides a powerful competitive advantage, because viewers have stronger recall when website graphics are professional and distinctive.

A graduate of Flagler College, earning her B.A. in Graphic Design with a minor in Fine Art, Sherri has won numerous Addy Awards throughout her career, and her work shines brightly for organizations throughout the southern states and as far north as Michigan.

Wayne

Wayne Bowman

Content Strategist/Client Services

Telling Stories That Build Your Bottom Line.

Longtime advertising/public relations executive and writer Wayne Bowman has survived a woodstove avalanche, raced elevators, supervised photography in a toxic waste dump, and helped companies ranging from startups to the Fortune 500 earn millions of dollars.

If there’s a compelling story to be told about your organization (and there always is), he helps you find it and put it in the hands of the people who will respond.

In his 38-year career with advertising and public relations agencies, he has provided communications counsel and written for more than 250 companies, including ARCO Chemical, Union Carbide, Mohawk Industries, MasterCraft Boats, Pennsylvania House Furniture, Methodist Medical Center, the Tennessee Valley Authority, and the United Way.

He has been an account executive, a copywriter, a public relations director, a webmaster, a video and audio producer, a photography supervisor, an art director, and, once, a hand model.

A summa cum laude graduate of Western Carolina University with a B.A. in English, he has won more than 80 Addy, Public Relations Society of America, and Society For Technical Communications Awards. He is a recipient of the American Advertising Federation’s National Silver Medal, and was inducted into the American Advertising Federation-Knoxville Advertising Hall of Fame.

When not working, he plays guitar, walks in the woods, plays with grandchildren, and maintains an uneasy relationship with Marvin, the “Godless killing machine”—what he calls the big tabby rescue cat that lives with him and his wife.
