Community Involvement
I also love getting involved in my community! Volunteering my time and design skills to many local community non-profit organizations.
More About Sharon
From 2008 to 2014, I served as the Creative Director for Routes Magazine, a bi-monthly publication centred on art and lifestyle in the foothills region. My time at Routes allowed me to refine and elevate my skills in various aspects of media design. Collaborating with an exceptionally skilled media production team was both fulfilling and productive, resulting in consistently meeting project deadlines with precision and creative flair.
Regrettably, Routes Magazine ceased production after the High River 2013 flood. Nevertheless, we persist in undertaking customized publication projects under the banner of Routes Media.
In 2014, I assumed a position as the Media/Marketing Manager for a corporation in Calgary, all the while managing my freelance design business. As my design business saw steady growth, I made the pivotal decision to transition from part-time to full-time entrepreneurship in 2017, establishing Brand Brighter.
