I’ve built marketing programs from the ground up, shaping strategy, writing clear and compelling content, and working with vendor teams to execute efficiently. In recent years, I’ve worked closely with founders and executive leaders to clarify their message, elevate their brand, and build marketing systems that grow with the business. I’m at my best bringing high-level vision to life through thoughtful execution, whether directing a rebrand, launching a new product, or rolling out a campaign that connects. I care about good design, strong writing, smart strategy, and thoughtful collaboration. Outside of work, I’m an avid reader, knitter, yogi, and novice potter and weight lifter. I spent time living in Seoul, Tokyo, the central coast of California, and several Canadian cities before settling in Toronto. https://stephaniedamgaard.com/portfolio daily 0.75 2026-04-15 https://stephaniedamgaard.com/portfolio/film-screening-partnership monthly 0.5 2025-06-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60817145b782341694b1dcd9/9b8537c4-31f5-4608-973d-79e0d04a97eb/Screen+Shot+2023-08-04+at+11.06.39+AM.png Portfolio - Film Screening Partnership - Film Screening Partnership 2016 - As a freelance publicist for Films We Like’s re-release of Tampopo (a classic Japanese film about ramen) at the TIFF Bell Lightbox, I was tasked with generating media coverage and excitement around the film’s screenings.
