Arleigh is a bundle of energy and brings a wealth of experience and passion to all of her communications projects and clients. Working in the field for over 13 years, she founded The Agency in March 2009 upon her return to Canada.
Prior to coming home to her native Calgary, Arleigh lived in London, UK where she had the opportunity to hone her PR skills working with a diverse contact network including international government bodies such as the UNWTO and global business leaders in the banking, technology, and travel and tourism sectors. Some career highlights include leading the Communications and PR team for WTM at Reed Exhibitions, and managing the PR, Sponsorship and Promotions team at Virgin Holidays. In both roles she focused on strategic planning, change management, project messaging, and managing globals communications campaigns.
Since her return to Canada, Arleigh has jumped head first into growing her business and connecting with the interesting people who live and work in the Canadian tech space. She currently works with a handful of excellent organizations including Digital Alberta and Wmode Inc., sits on the TechRev PR Roundtable and this past spring ran two Lunch and Learn sessions on the basics of PR for tech start-ups at Innovate.
