After 11+ years of travelling around the world and doing brand strategy, employment branding, shopper marketing experiences and large-scale events for an agency I decided I no longer wanted to live and work out of a suit case (at least not for someone else’s dream).
In 2012 I took everything I learned and loved about my job, left it and rebranded it under my own name; Grace Lanuza Brand Strategy. Since then, I've launched 8 successful companies and opened up offices in Vancouver, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, London UK and Manila Philippines.
At this point in my career giving back and mentoring young women in business has become a priority. I currently serve as a Mentor for Young Women in Business (both SFU and UBC Chapters), Vancouver Board Of Trade’s Leaders Of Tomorrow, Beedie School of Business at SFU, Forum Women for Entrepreneurs and I volunteer at Junior Achievement Canada where I help bring entrepreneurship and business workshops into Lower Mainland classrooms.
A list and quick description of a few of the companies I've started and launched over the last few years:
