“I first met Elyse as she was referred to me as someone who was very well connected and effective as a PR lead, especially for outdoor or adventure. As co-founder and GM of the Sea to Sky Gondola project, for our PR and marketing efforts to get attention for a product that was not even constructed yet, was by any measure, challenging. Elyse played a crucial role in the success of our first year and onward. We gained profiles in major media and international coverage, online coverage, etc. all due very much in part to her excellent work and contacts that she was able to attract to our business and experience our vision and our facility. She was always up to the task with good humour and creativity, intelligence and perseverance. She is a rare commodity that brings a depth of experience and insight into any marketing and PR challenge and project.”
