Author: Your Events Guide - Samantha

Samantha is the Founder of Urbancasual.ca - Cochrane's events website. Years ago she was sad at always missing out on Cochrane, Alberta events, and thought that others may be having the same problem in our growing town. So as a website designer & marketer, Samantha aimed to fix this problem and created the community hub, Urbancasual.ca. Samantha seeks to connect & serve her community through the sharing of stories, and by supporting and/or organizing local events.
