About Playfish Media

Our Team

Since 2011

Playfish Media was founded by owner & producer/director Jillian Suleski with her film school colleague-turned-film-editor Nick Nelson. Suleski, Nelson, and the full Playfish Media team combine years of freelance experience and more than ten years in business into a special sauce of superior client care, enthusiastic creativity, and a straightforward attitude about getting things done right.

As a woman-owned company, Playfish Media believes diversity fuels creativity. We value differing approaches and points of view and are consciously building a culture that celebrates our employees’ unique perspectives and voices.
