Valerie, founder/co-owner of RavenSong Soap & Candle, hails from Haida Gwaii and takes immense pride in her Haida heritage. Her journey into artisanal craftsmanship began in 2003 with a gifted handmade soap bar, sparking an unwavering passion. Fueled by a relentless creative spirit, she dedicated every free moment to mastering the art.
In 2013, she left the corporate world to make soap full-time. Today, she presides over a thriving soap and candle emporium in Campbell River, complemented by an expanding online presence. Her luxury line of bath and beauty products continues to flourish, with RavenSong Soap + Candle’s creations gracing galleries and gift shops throughout the lower mainland.
