Sales, Marketing & Design

 

Rob-kole

Rob, President

Since 1999, Rob has served as President and CEO of Kole Digital, overseeing sales and strategic business planning. He has a hand in every CAD design, whether it's a theater, custom cabinet or bar, graphic interface, or lighting plan. With a bachelor's degree in Sound Engineering from Columbia College, Chicago, and having run sound and lighting for over 600 live shows, Rob combines technical prowess with art and passion to push the edge of creative design in the company. A lifelong musician with a recording studio in his house, Rob believes that we really can affect people's lives by engaging them emotionally through state-of-the-art music and cinema systems. He started the company with that premise and for eight years used his own house to demonstrate what is possible with our integrated systems.

Tim, System Designer & Sales

My true passion lies where technology meets entertainment. After graduating from NIU with a degree in Computer Science in 2017, I decided to turn my love for home theaters, high-end audio, and TV technology into a career.

I joined Kole Digital in 2019 as an installer and system programmer, which gave me an expert-level understanding of how these systems actually work. In 2020, I moved into Sales, where I now help clients design their dream setups. Because of my technical background, I still love getting my hands dirty in the field whenever the team needs an extra set of eyes.
