Adrienne Renaud
senior marketing manager in Kelowna, BC
I discovered my love for marketing somewhat by accident - actually I didn't even realize what it was or that a creative career in business even existed. I could never really answer the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" but all my high school electives consisted of drama, art, and photojournalism courses - the perfect ground work for a creative professional in the making.
Since finding the path to my ideal career (after a few life experiences along the way), I haven't looked back. I love marketing & branding - both the design and strategy of it. My focus is to continue learning, evolving, and growing in my personal and professional life.
I'm still not sure exactly what I will be when I grow up, but as long as I get to create, experience, and maybe make even a small difference in the world, then I will have succeeded.
