Soon after joining the SBWE team in 2016, Marlena quickly became one of Sandra’s right hand ladies. Having completed her Bachelor of Communications, she has worked extensively in the communications and events management industries in all roles from administration to management. Marlena brings a keen eye for details and can usually be found shooting all the behind the scenes shots for our social media shout outs on event days.

After meeting in a new moms group when their daughters were just a few weeks old (fun fact, they are only 1 week apart and share almost the same name – Ariana & Alianna), Jill shared her earlier dream of being a wedding planner with Sandra. Soon after she excitedly joined the team and has been an important part of the SBWE family since 2017. Jill holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology and has a lengthy background working in the finance world, a skillset that rounds out our creative team successfully.
