‍Introduce yourself!

I am an entrepreneur, a mom, and a millennial. Since my early 20’s I've owned a fashion business, a product-based supplement brand, and worked in real estate. I am also a multifaceted individual with (self-diagnosed) ADHD. This means that I am obsessed with learning new skills and always love to try new things. My work experience has been in a variety of fields, and I have learned a great deal along the way which is now essential to my approach to content creation.

Why did you become a creator?

About a year and a half ago, local friends started asking me to help them with content for their businesses, as they knew I was good at it. As I took on these projects and reconnected with my creative side, word of mouth spread and other local businesses started hiring me. I believe that thinking outside the box, being creative, and always being hungry to learn more is essential in this industry. This is who I am by nature, and it is why I eventually started creating content for brands full-time. As I shared my work, it quickly moved from local businesses to national brands. I am so grateful to be able to enjoy the work I do, and I honestly have fun every day!

What is your favourite part about being a creator?

The most gratifying part of being a creator is the happy clients! But also..a gratifying part of the process is when ideas flow to me. It's exciting to visualize an idea in my head, then concept it out (Brkaway is so helpful with that). Watching my ideas come to fruition in the edits is incredibly satisfying.

What does a typical content day look like for you?

I'm not sure if I mentioned the self-diagnosed ADHD. I haven't quite figured out the perfect system just yet, and I feel like I'm filming almost every day. But the first thing I do every morning is a minimum of 20 minutes of guided meditation. I swear by it. I connect with myself on a higher level, and crazy amounts of inspiration pop into my head. It's like an endless stream of ideas. I look at my content schedule on Brkaway and print out my scripts/notes. I always need to have it on paper, since I'm a visual person. I generally don't like to sound scripted, so I always leave room to come up with ideas at the last moment if they feel right. I'm still looking for a rhythm to the filming-to-editing process, but I'll get there!

Do you have any advice/pointers for new creators?

Everyone is unique and develops their own style with time, practice, and creating. Don't be afraid to experiment and start creating!

Anything else you'd like to share about your creator journey to date?

Food for thought: In life, your experiences reflect what you believe. So if you believe in yourself and expect the best, you will experience amazing things. Cheers!
