2023, what a year for BCP!

ree

2023 came with a whirlwind of achievements, which inspired exciting opportunities and experiences. I'm happy to say this year I was able to take the leap and begin running Butterfly Creative Projects full-time! One of the best things about being a business owner is working with various industries. This year we collaborated with industries such as wellness, medical, pet care, beauty, real estate, and more (over 10 different industries)!


I want to extend a HUGE thank you to all of my clients and vendors because, without you, none of this would be possible! Your collaboration and support have made a difference, and I can't thank you enough for tagging along with BCP. I look forward to the incredible things we'll create together in 2024!

Awards

I was proudly awarded the U.S. Small Business Administration's 2023 Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award, just five months after starting to run BCP full-time. A few months later, I was honored to be awarded the title "Freelancer of the Year" by the American Marketing Association! I'm so grateful for everyone who nominated me and for those who believe in Butterfly Creative Projects.

Community involvement

I love getting involved with my community. This year, I had the pleasure of presenting in front of a packed house about branding at NCET's Biz Café. It was such a rewarding experience to share the knowledge I've gained as a business owner with others. I'm a member of Battle Born BNI group and that has helped me grow my business and forge connections, as well. I always jump headfirst at the chance to support my local businesses -- I hosted giveaways for nine different restaurants in town on my food blog, Snack on That!


Additionally, I worked with with many local organizations on design projects such as The Children’s Cabinet, Blitz for a Cause, and The Reno Connection Network.

I was on the news!

I was featured on KTVN Reno's "Someone to Know" segment, as well as KOLO 8 Reno where I talked about all things BCP and what it was like to win the 2023 Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award!

Events

In January, BCP celebrated two years at Black Rabbit Mead here in Reno! It was truly amazing to see so many family, friends, and clients come and celebrate with me. One of my clients, Lucky Gold Permanent Jewelry, came in from Sacramento to support me and do permanent bracelets for everyone! Check out all the fun here! I also had the unforgettable opportunity to attend the Adobe Max conference this year, which was a dream come true. I truly felt fueled with inspiration and creativity and even got to meet some of the artists and designers who inspired me!

We brought on a copywriter, Caroline!

We gained a new addition this year! Caroline joined BCP's team in July, and she has become our designated wordsmith! She writes engaging and informational blogs, eye-catching social media captions, and more. Her creativity, enthusiasm, and keen eye for detail have made her an asset to the team. I can't wait to see what magic we create together next year!


2023 was a fabulous year, where I made meaningful connections while helping businesses stand out among the rest. I'm so appreciative of everything I've experienced this trip around the sun. I look forward to big, bold things in 2024!
