SEVEN BRANDS, FILED AND PINNED — IDENTITY, SOCIAL PRESENCE, WEBSITES, CAMPAIGNS AND CONTENT.

Index

Case 01

Pathfinder Camp Resorts

Bringing three BC campgrounds online and offline — telling stories beyond just a weekend camping.

RoleMarketing ManagerYear2024-2026WhereRemote, British Columbia, CanadaToolsWordPress, Meta Suite, Brevo, Mailchimp, Canva, Adobe CC, CapCut

The brief

Family- and pet-friendly campgrounds with RV sites, tent camping and cabins across three parks. Goal: more visibility, more bookings, one consistent brand.

The challenge 2024

Pathfinder Camp Resorts’ visuals and messaging felt dated, its online presence was inconsistent, and guest retention was limited. The brand needed a modern, trustworthy identity and real, relatable content that made Pathfinder feel approachable and worth booking, along with a major refresh of its annual Winter Camping campaign.

What I did 2024–2026

  1. Refreshed Pathfinder’s visual identity across the website and social media channels.
  2. Built a full marketing strategy and a year-round content calendar spanning 2024–2027.
  3. Grew the social presence of Fort Camping, Parksville and Agassiz with consistent, engaging content — producing photography, reels and UGC-style storytelling that showcased organic campers experience, cabins, RV sites and park amenities.
  4. Built and managed a scalable influencer program, delivering 20+ creator campaigns per-year.
  5. Wrote SEO-focused blog posts to increase visibility, build trust and improve search rankings.
  6. Launched and managed Google Ads campaigns, produced email newsletters and streamlined guest communication.
  7. Built a tangible brand presence by creating Pathfinder merchandise, including stickers, mugs, and maps, and partnering with Roots Canada on a Canadian-made apparel collection featuring the Pathfinder brand.
  8. Developed a dedicated sub-brand for the annual Winter Camping Program, giving long-stay winter guests a fresh, exclusive experience that made them feel recognized and valued for being part of the season, adding a special touch to their regular camping stay.

Case 02

Calibre Canada

A brand identity that feels warm, authentic and earthly.

RoleBrand designerYear2024WhereVancouverToolsAdobe Creative Suite, Canva

The brief

A Canadian small business making handcrafted skincare and home essentials from all-natural ingredients, suitable for all skin types. They needed a brand as honest as the product.

The challenge

Calibre had some products to launch but no visual identity yet. It needed a look and a voice that felt as warm, authentic and earthy as its ingredients — and consistent enough to carry across labels, social media and online.

What I did

  1. Designed a logo built around warmth and craft.
  2. Developed the visual identity and brand voice.
  3. Created an earthy colour palette inspired by the natural ingredients.
  4. Produced product imagery to launch the new look.
