Anastasia is passionate about storytelling, capturing moments and generously sharing her expertise with creatives and business owners as a partner, collaborator and mentor.
As an entrepreneur’s daughter, she’s often felt that business was in her blood and she feels lucky to have waded through a lot of creative confusion early in her career. Anastasia credits her decision to be the photographer she wanted to be, not the photographer she thought she had to be, with defining her authentic photography style and providing so much personal and professional fulfillment.
Later in her career, building a network of people with shared values and interests and being relentlessly loyal, generous and curios opened up a new passion in her for mentoring women. In 2016, she launched two new women-centered businesses.
In reflecting on your profession over the last 2 years of incredible growth, the same thought kept coming back; the thought that she could link the exact path of people and moments that moved her ahead in her career and life to actual experiences or meaningful conversations. Anastasia knew she wanted to pass that on. She wanted to talk and connect, inspire and encourage. With Anastasia Creative, she helps businesses create authentic content and tell fearless stories to connect them with the people who will appreciate their work the most. Talking about branding and values with anyone who will listen, is what inspires her the most.

One of the best ways to learn in sport is to hear the stories and lessons from the athletes that came before. Brittany Waters represented Canada over a ten year career on both the women’s rugby 15’s team and the 7’s team, bringing home world cup silver medals in each world cup event.
Join us this July 26th at 6pm to hear anecdotes and personal points of view from an athlete that went as far as she could go in her sport. Brittany is now taking her experience as an athlete and transferring her skills into becoming a very successful coach for the University of Victoria; also hear how her experience as an athlete has helped to shape her coaching philosophies and what she looks for in her current athletes.
Do not miss this chance to learn from a very real experience!

Ethan Carmichael Denum, 19, of Coquitlam, BC, passed away surrounded by family and friends on Saturday January 7, 2017, after a year-long battle with cancer. As a baby, he was eager to make an appearance and entered the world seven weeks early on January 29, 1997, at Royal Columbian Hospital. He had a short, but meaningful and accomplished life. If he wasn’t at the pool playing or refereeing water polo, he could be found travelling the world with his family, playing his favourite video games, eating or cooking in someone’s kitchen, or filling screens with an endless number of witty posts on social media. Perhaps his most notable accomplishment was the network of good friends he nurtured, many of whom the Denums consider family. We will miss his extra big hugs, fierce loyalty, positive attitude, and his unlimited capacity to love – this, above all, was his greatest gift.
“Think of me as living in the hearts of those I touched. For nothing loved is ever lost and I have loved so much.”
Having a basic understanding of health in a high performance sport context is essential to athletic performance. The Sport Medicine course helps athletes stay fit and able to compete and train at their best by teaching athletes and coaches what they need to know to keep injury and illness at bay.
