This is my story…

I never wanted to be an entrepreneur. It wasn’t my dream. 

At a time when I was a complete emotional wreck, grieving the loss of my Mum, I realized how precious life really is. And I made a decision to not spend my time doing things that don’t bring me joy. 

So, getting up before 5 a.m. to get kids out of bed so early so we could get on the highway and commute to work had to go.

Drinking all the coffee just to be a human, had to go.

Missing out on quality time with my kids, had to go.

Asking someone else’s permission for what I could do with my time, had to go.

So I started my own business.

That was 2017, and it’s been quite the adventure!

When I looked around, I saw small business owners who had poured their hearts and souls (and savings) into their businesses, but marketing had fallen off the priority list. 

I set out to help them. 

I started this business to help other entrepreneurs grow successful businesses by creating authentic brands and attracting the dream clients they want to serve (because I don’t believe you should have to do anything that doesn’t bring you joy!) 

I brought with me a 12+ year career in PR and communications, working with global brands on reputation management. Now, I bring that big brand experience to the small business space, helping turn your startup into a brand in demand!

In the first four years of my business, I’ve scaled to over 6-figures, created an award-winning brand for the Cochrane Tourism Association, built out and implemented several integrated marketing strategies, had my clients featured in dozens of media publications, hired a team and supported more than 100 small business owners through programs and coaching. 

But it all comes back to purpose.

When I lost my mum, I learned the importance of feeling connected to my work, since it takes up so much of my time. That’s time I need to be away from my girls, so it better be making an impact.

You deserve to work at what you love. You deserve to make money doing it. You don’t need to compromise.

Let’s do this together! 

Meet our Chief Creative Genius

Hi! I’m Julie. I’m excited you’re here.

I help build people’s dreams into a visible, tangible, and profitable reality through design and media. Creativity is my passion and I can honestly say that I get to do everything I’ve dreamed of doing and often more. While hard work is invaluable in the process, smart work is what gets you results.

Since 2007 I’ve been working one-on-one with business owners to craft brand identities, websites and graphic tools that take them from feeling stuck and overlooked to stepping forward in their brands with confidence and clarity.

I believe a solid brand is the key to building a successful, sustainable business.

After all, your brand is more than a logo—it’s your story and personality, it’s the value you offer and the experience you provide, it’s your goals and dreams.

And when all these elements are aligned, you can exchange the insecurity of the “awkward stage” for growing your business from a place of ease and confidence.

I’m thrilled to be sharing my passion for supporting entrepreneurs and helping them step into their full potential.

It’s never too early or too late to make your dreams a reality. 

Let’s chrystalize your vision!
