SKILLS

For the past 20+ years I have worked with the incredible people at Taiji Brand Group as communications and placebranding specialist. (I’ve also been a City Councillor, and have volunteered on many community projects/boards including this one and this one). About 10 years ago, I decided to merge these skills with my lifelong passion for art. Now I collaborate within and beyond the arts sector on a number of exciting capacity building and destination development projects as volunteer co-chair of Creative Coast (creativecoast.ca), and manage two multi-year grants from the Canada Council for the Arts Digital Strategy Fund.
