Our Journey

The Bore Tide Company was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to empower Alaskan businesses with cohesive, impactful branding and marketing solutions. Inspired by the natural phenomenon of the bore tide, where a surge of water moves against the current, we help businesses make waves in their industries.

Starting as a one-person operation focused on administration, bookkeeping, web design and print coordination, I’ve grown The Bore Tide Company into a full-service creative partner. While I lead all projects personally, I also collaborate with a trusted team of specialists when needed, ensuring every aspect is handled with care and close oversight.

Today, our services span from virtual administration assistance, bookkeeping, and website development to social media management and promotional products, providing flexible, end-to-end solutions tailored to each client’s needs.

My journey has been guided by a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities faced by Alaskan businesses. By staying attuned to my clients’ needs and the ever-evolving market landscape, I’ve been able to adapt and grow alongside them.

The Bore Tide Company remains rooted in personal service, trusted expertise, and a commitment to helping clients navigate their own journeys toward success.
