  FreshGrade

  • Marketing & Product Lead

    • Dec 2012 - Sep 2014
    • Kelowna, BC

    Using agile scrum methodologies I manage teams to strategically plan our product road map, deliver quality product on-time, and execute marketing campaigns and events. I work closely with stakeholders to understand business models and help align company goals and action plans to match. Working in a start up also allows me to be hands on with launching customer facing websites, design print and promotion material as well as assisting with customer support. To manage these different tasks I have learned to rely on many valuable online tools and systems such as JIRA, Confluence and Zendesk.

  ITSmedia

  • Creative Director & Project Manager

    • Apr 2012 - Jan 2013
    • Kelowna, BC

    Helping ITSmedia find its brand, values, and goals was an exciting process. Having worked with many clients to discover their own messaging and purpose, it was a whole new exercise to do it for your own company. I assisted ITSmedia to find its values, establish their brand, launch the company website and form its creative office culture. Working on this project along side taking care of clients was a test of my time management, client administration, and communication skills. I learned how to create and maintain Wordpress websites, develop extensive branding packages, and complete marketing campaigns.

  DPI Media Inc.

  • Graphic Designer

    • Sep 2009 - Feb 2011
    • Kelowna, BC

    Managing multiple client projects while running the office was a great growing experience for me. I answered phones, quoted on projects, took client meetings all while getting to work hands on with each project. I designed logos and branding packages, marketing material, and created basic websites. With clients like Center of Gravity, Castanet.net, and Sapphire night club, I was exposed to tight deadlines, strict project requirements, and learned how to effectively communicate with clients.
