Hi, I’m Leah Kitagawa. I’m a Toronto-based freelance copywriter who has spent six years developing technical and creative content for thriving boutique marketing firms, including m marketing and Piccadilly Communications.

When I’m not hard at work scribing for my clients, I can be found chasing down my latest culinary craving, catching a live band at a local club or plotting my next great adventure.

Brand Stories

I have clients from a range of industries and love the variety, but I admit that I have a sweet tooth for food related writing that helps shape a company's over-all brand. Lorem ipsum dolor.

BLENDER BOYZ

Blender Boyz Story

Three guys started a garage band, and at rehearsals and neighbourhood shows, they served smoothies. The buzz was electric – though mostly from the sound of the blender whipping up delicious blended concoctions. As the guys’ harmonies fell flat, their fan following grew, with groupies for the smoothies, cocktails and cappuccinos. Their ascent to musical glory was (and still is) challenged, but their blended drinks achieved star status. And so, the Blender Boyz (Barry, Joe and Steve‐O) embraced their true calling and started a frozen beverage business. The Boyz have still not given up on their dream of rock stardom.

Barry is the hipster bass guitarist, health nut and creator of Blender Boyz Smoothies.

Joe is a heavy metal drummer and rabid coffee aficionado, creator of Blender Boyz Iced Cappuccinos.

Steve‐O is the lead singer and lead guitarist, inveterate party guy, and logically, creator of Blender Boyz Cocktail Mixes.
 
So, what’s your blend?

The Blender Boyz have developed a range of beverages to cater to your personal “blended” preference. Using concentrated real ingredients in single‐serve pouches, the Blender Boyz have created a diverse line of easy‐to‐blend fruit smoothies, iced cappuccinos, and real fruit cocktail mixes.

"Take Flight with Visa and Air Canada" & "Visa Hockey Love Hurts" Campaigns

Visa Hockey Love Hurts

Most NHL sponsorships celebrate the joy of winning. It’s all about cheering, chanting and reveling at the best of times. But because Visa is a fan of the NHL, we know that being a fan goes a lot deeper than just cheering along.

As fans we go through the ups and the downs, we have our hearts momentarily broken, we lose sleep staying up for late games and we choose hockey over other things we should be doing sometimes because that’s what fans do.

It’s called HOCKEY LOVE

And sometimes HOCKEY LOVE HURTS.
