Meet the Team
Lynne Gonzaga
Director + Lead Strategist
I'm a passionate marketeer and a consummate entrepreneur. My extensive experience building brands for a global multinational as well as my know-how in managing my own businesses has equipped me with the skill necessary to help other businesses. I'm a proud UBC Sauder - MBA alumni, access to education and equal oppportunity for women are two causes I'm impassioned with. I've lived and worked in several countries around the world but Vancouver is home so is the Philippines. The outdoors of British Columbia and the islands of the Philippines are where I find solace, books are how I stimulate my mind, kitchen is where my creativity thrives and the golf course is where I practice the great lessons of life.
Elsa Portillo

We humans are funny creatures, and understanding our behavior is one of my passions. After completing my business adminitration degree, I discovered that marketing was my true passion. I pursued a master's degree in marketing and later obtained a diploma in digital marketing. I have been working as a marketing consultant for the past 3 years while enjoying the beautiful landscapes of Vancouver for the last 5 years.
Maria Barco
Marketing Consultant
I studied Business Administration and International Marketing and Advertising simultaneously. I started working at Honda Colombia, where I was able to combine my greatest passions: marketing, photography, and travel. After a while, I wanted to explore the world and experience other cultures, so I moved to Australia to work, study, and develop my digital marketing skills. I also discovered a passion for scuba diving and underwater photography and grew into my spiritual path. After seven years, I moved to Canada to complete my MBA, and for the past 2 years, I've been working in Marketing and have fallen in love with nature and outdoor activities in British Columbia.

I started freelancing in 2013 when I started my Fine Arts degree in the university.

After 3 years, my path took me to Vancouver where I have been working as a graphic designer for the past 3 years while enjoying the beautiful city of Canada. My best skill at work is sending funny email signatures such "Always fast, never furious".
