Guy joined Quarem after two successful decades at Fortune 500 telecom companies, AT&T and CenturyLink. He held several key positions in leadership and sales (both direct and indirect channels) as well as an international assignment at AT&T. Guy brings to Quarem the senior management skills and innovative client programming experience required to lead and expand our progressive technology-services company. He was instrumental in developing our proprietary Quarem Access advisory platform on the passionate premise of being Accessible, Personalized, and Responsive.

Guy is infinitely familiar with collaboration and project management assignments. While at AT&T, he led the initiative that integrated two separate sales forces as a result of the SBC acquisition. Guy managed the integration project using innovative techniques such as developing a cross-training curriculum and increasing the adoption of online collaboration tools. Subsequently, Guy was awarded The Lighthouse Award and received national recognition for his innovative leadership in launching the combined salesforce ahead of schedule.

For our corporate clients, Guy leverages his strong technical aptitude, process acumen, and integrity towards the most important step to any engagement --- matching business requirements to the best mix of technical and advisory solutions.

For brokers and agents who utilize the Quarem platform to enhance the value of their services, Guy serves as a vital resource in helping to align and support Quarem applications to their client’s strategy.

Guy has a BA from Texas Christian University. He currently resides in Houston with his wife and their two children.

Although new to commercial real estate, we recruited Meredith to join the Quarem team in 2017 to provide a fresh perspective on revamping our branding, advertising and digital presence throughout the CRE industry. Meredith made an immediate impact by taking an assertive approach to implementing changes to the marketing practices that were in place at the time. In just her first six months, she evaluated and clearly defined our new global marketing strategy and initiated multiple new programs such as the “Love Local” initiative. Meredith also is the creative force in developing promotions, evaluating conferences/tradeshows and coordinating national as well as local events.

Meredith is a graduate of the Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Oklahoma. She earned a BA in Journalism, with a focus on Public Relations and Business. On the rare occasion when she’s not tirelessly keeping all of us “on track” and implementing new marketing idea, she is an avid equestrian and enjoys spending time with her horse, Jitterbug.
