Tevis arrived in Canada at the University of Western Ontario for an adventure into the unknown. Altering his original plans to return home to Bermuda after his studies in political science, Tevis opted to remain here, rediscovering his love for creative work in a new career path at a strategic marketing consultancy.

Adam Kreek used to represent Canada on its National Rowing Team in 2021. Since then, Kreek won three Olympic gold medals for Canada.

Today he is an author, executive business coach, and speaker.

Former F.U.N.® program graduate and team lead Taylor talks with us about her experience in the program, balancing the demands of school at the same time as a multi-hat role in financial services, innovating around the challenges posed by Covid-19.

Let’s talk to an employment counsellor in the London Ontario area about how Covid-19 changed the labourmarket landscape and as a result,  the nature of her work.

It’s so great to have Noah back on our podcast! After his internship with us he’s back at OCAD and has been working on some truly amazing projects with his peers, bringing into the fold his innovation experience in the F.U.N.® program and the marketing and branding experience that he acquired with us as an intern. Noah has also gotten involved with a really exciting food-related ecommerce startup and is bringing fresh ideas to his peers and the company at large.

We love these stories, as they practically never end. And seeing what paths enrapture our program grads as they chart their destinies along their chosen career paths never ceases to be rewarding for the entire Prepr team. Listen in and hear why.

Tristan came to our F.U.N.® program ambitious and eager to learn! A self-taught developer, he applied his talents to his team’s innovation and showed a lot of fledgling leadership experience and an affinity for an entrepreneurial spirit that wanted to understand everything about bringing an idea to market.

Adam’s colleague Ben shares with us his story in which — to the chagrin of his teachers, and as a secondary student with great grades all around — he was determined to pursue “the only thing that he was truly passionate about” as a creative professional.

As impressed as we always are with our F.U.N.® program’s teams of learners, Team Stylism not only got off to a swift start but they leveraged this momentum in an accelerated workflow that saw them come up with a retail-focused solution that was truly visionary.

The first thing you notice about Noah is that he thinks BIG! A clearly bright and visionary young man, Noah utilizes no shortage of design-thinking approaches in tackling problems. In fact, the opportunity to tackle problems in this way is probably what drives him most.

Without much experience at all, Noah eagerly took on a lot of marketing projects, working closely with Adam and other Prepr team members in developing copy for email journeys, webpages, landing pages, and more.

Here’s his internship story.

Nolan came to the Prepr team as our first digital nomad! It was always exciting every time he turned his camera on and the whole team got envious of the various tropical and oceanic backdrops that characterized his always-changing workspace. Nolan put to work his video storyboarding, editing, and production skills that he acquired through his extensive vlog documentation of his travels.

Nolan also joined the Prepr team on contract and continued to work with us as a part of the team, creating tonnes of awesome video content for the Prepr brand, helping us to tell our story.

Here is his internship story.
