SKYE DELUZ AND JACQUELYN A CREATIVE TEAM,  RETHINK, TORONTO

SKYE DELUZ, Creative Director, Art Director 
Alma Mater: Humber College

Currently a creative director at Rethink Toronto but originally from the beautiful prairies of Winnipeg, Manitoba. She dabbled in fashion design for a couple of years before switching gears into advertising in 2016. As a co-lead in our internal D&I committee, representation and equality in advertising is something that Skye is very passionate about.

 

JACQUELYN PARENT, Associate Creative Director, Writer
Alma Mater: Humber College / Guelph University

Jacquelyn is currently ACD of the writing variety at Rethink Toronto. After studying both Fine Art and English in university, she chose to pursue copywriting mostly because she knew not being able to fix grammatical errors would bug her more than anything in design. For the past few years, she’s co-chaired Rethink's D&I Student Outreach Subcommittee to help create a more inclusive and diverse pathway into careers in advertising.
