In my own words

Kayla

As a natural born go-getter, my passion for creativity and data-driven marketing has continuously progressed my skills in marketing, communication, storytelling and content production.

I’ve spent a majority of my career in lifestyle industries capturing and personifying brand identities online, offline and in between.

I have over 9 years experience in the marketing and communications industry. I am very eager to build relationships, produce meaningful campaigns, and explore new opportunities in marketing, content production, and creative media.

My devotion towards finding every day excitement and exploring the outdoors has allowed me to follow my dreams and stay heavily engaged in activities including hiking, biking, kayaking, traveling, snowboarding, fitness and the occasional golf game.

If it's outdoors, I'm there - let's connect!
