About me

In another life, I was the director of SEO for a global media company, Reprise Media. A partner and digital strategist for an award-winning UX company, Playground Inc. I also happen to be the co-owner of Nude Bee Honey, a nationally distributed honey Canadian brand.

I’ve won awards in advertising for promoting cycling culture, spreading down syndrome awareness, and launching local coffee shops.

That’s all before 2017 when we started traveling the world.

Today I run Go Squab, a digital consultancy managing the social media and SEO needs of clients in; travel & tourism, alcoholic spirits, health & wellness, and even innovative child care products.

Now with my business partner and love of my life we travel full time, staying longer and living like locals by house sitting far from the tourist trails. Traveling carry-on only, we’re minimizing our impact by avoiding flights, charging a SteriPen and learning how to say “no straw” in 10 different languages.

Ditch your single use plastics, take local transport, walk till cab drivers call you crazy, and join us in making the world and web a better place.
