MEET THE FOUNDER, CHANTAL
(AKA CJ)
CJ has a stylish method for telling any story, whether it’s about a person, place or brand. The source of her creativity comes from her love for writing and extensive background in the advertising and PR worlds (with a little bit of fashion industry in the mix, too).
CJ’s educational focus was in marketing, with an emphasis in buying behavior and advertising history. While pursuing her degree, she excelled in creative writing and was formally recognized by her school's English chair for her unique craft. She can proudly say that over the years she’s become a published author in numerous publications throughout the country, as well as a ghost writer for an up-n-coming author with book advances from Harper Collins.
Before moving to the west coast, she spent years working side-by-side with some of the industry’s greatest advertising executives and designer fashion houses (think Devil Wears Prada IRL). Since her migration out west, CJ has held a senior role at a leading public relations agency in SoCal, as well as an in-house, head marketing role with national luxury home retailer, Pirch.
Her carefully curated campaigns have reached “viral status” by being featured on Good Morning America, ABC News, Yahoo! News, Nightline, and the list goes on. More importantly, her campaigns help you reach your actual goals. The most rewarding professional moments for CJ are when she’s watching her clients revel in the spotlight. Her main goal is to utilize her marketing and editorial skills to elevate her clients' stories and to highlight their achievements (no matter how big or small).
When CJ isn’t running the show, she enjoys holidays in faraway places and being a dog mom to her french bulldogs. Other crushes include: wine studies and collection, health and wellness, gardening, good books, good style, and anything you call art.
