Our purpose is to discover the hidden potential in everything and find unexpected ways to share it with the world.

We’re here to help our clients solve their problems and to make them look
damn good in the process.

When the Saskatchewan Rush moved to Saskatchewan in 2015, many were excited but unfamiliar with lacrosse. Random Thoughts began as a way to educate Rush fans and soon evolved into a broader project. It's now a weekly publication for all fans.

I love helping small business owners and new entrepreneurs figure out the world of strategy and marketing. They have so much passion for their work, and I don’t think their lack of startup funds should be a barrier to getting their dreams up and running.
