“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

Shaping Stories. Building Worlds. Designing the Future.
I’m Richelle Sibolboro — a storyteller, brand builder, marketing strategist, and design thinker committed to creating experiences that inspire belonging and drive lasting impact.
With over 15 years of experience growing and differentiating recognizable Canadian brands, I specialize in crafting compelling value propositions, building systems-driven strategies, and telling brand stories that move diverse audiences to action.
Today, I lead ventures at the intersection of marketing, media and design, creating platforms and places that shape the future of how we live, travel, and connect.
My Journey
My career began in media and storytelling, expanding the reach of global design culture through editorial leadership roles.
As Managing Editor of Open City Projects, Communications Lead at World Design Weeks and Digifest, and Editor for Designboom and Azure Magazine, I built an international reputation for curating design narratives that mattered. Landing major interviews with creative visionaries like Philippe Starck, Lenny Kravitz, Ron Arad, and Bjarke Ingels.
I also spearheaded branded partnerships with iconic brands such as Mini Cooper, Nike, and Hypebeast, blending editorial excellence with business strategy.
Recognizing that real influence is built on systems and innovation, I completed my Master’s Degree at the Institute of Art, Design + Technology in Dublin, Ireland. My thesis explored the Architecture Biennale of the Future, a visionary framework for cultural storytelling and spatial experience.
Along the way, I led marketing and communications initiatives for top architecture firms and technology brands, refining my ability to distill complex relationships into holistic, influential strategy, design, and communications. All while keeping an eye for meaningful detail.
What I Stand For
- Vision First: Every great creation starts with a bold vision and a commitment to build it.
- Creativity as Strategy: Imagination isn’t separate from success — it’s the foundation of it.
- Sustainability and Legacy: I design, build, and communicate for future generations.
- Systems Thinking: True influence requires understanding the full ecosystem and designing within it.
- Building Belonging: Every project is an opportunity to create spaces and communities where people feel seen, connected, and empowered.
