Aryonna Richard, the founder of Silver Light, grew up immersed in the media world.

From recording radio commercials as a child to running brand strategy for one of largest childrens’ ballet franchises in the US at twenty-seven, there’s no doubt Aryonna has a passion for all things marketing.

During college at Boise State University, Aryonna became the Social Media Manager for two local marketing agencies and started writing for a regional magazine, The Urban Liasion. 

At twenty-one years old, she dove into her entreprenerial passions by founding Silver Light Communication, which she rebranded as Silver Light Media, almost ten years ago in Boise, Idaho. With a mission to Ignite Your Vision with Silver Light and Creating Inspired Connections, the young innovator created a brand that would help several hundred clients across the US and continues to grow today.

After graduating from BSU with a Bachelor of Arts in English with an emphasis in Writing, Aryonna moved to Denver, Colorado, to continue her journey. In Colorado, she followed her interest in live music by writing for local platforms like the Mile High Sound Movement, collaborating with AEG Live Rocky Mountains, and promoting for  venues like The Pepsi Center, Mission Ballroom, Red Rocks Amphitheater, and the Ogden Theater.

After a few years in the Denver area, Aryonna relocated to the Monterey Peninsula to the Carmel/Pebble Beach area. Being a nature lover, she seized the opportunity to live within walking distance of the Pacific Ocean. During this time she expanded her reach with Silver Light Media by hosting and participating in speaking events and workshops. Aryonna created a bi-monthly workshop series teaching Social Media and SEO Best Practices for the Carmel Chamber of Commerce in addition to working with several restaurants and shops in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California.

Since returning to Colorado, Aryonna has continued her path by speaking on panels, hosting workshops, and attending live and virtual summits as a presenter. Silver Light Media continued to grow even during the COVID-19 pandemic with the shift to further online correspondence and marketing. This past year has been a milestone year for Aryonna Richard, who celebrated ten years in the online marketing industry. She’s incredibly thankful to work with clients across the US, collaborate with amazing designers, photographers, and videographers in addition to starting another branch of her business coming in 2022 – #AskAryonna.
