FounderBorn and raised in Vancouver, Kamie Palacios has always followed her curiosity and passion for connection. A true multi-passionate entrepreneur, her career has spanned from fitness to fashion—and now, the trades.
After earning her accreditation as a lifeguard and swim instructor, Kamie moved to Mexico, where she taught fitness classes and opened her own learn-to-swim school. Upon returning to B.C., she pursued Kinesiology at UBC, where she discovered a natural talent for sales and relationship-building. Her time as a Personal Shopper for a luxury retailer earned her numerous sales awards and recognition for excellence in client care.
Following a personal loss, Kamie found renewed purpose in building a hands-on career that combined learning, movement, and meaningful service. She enrolled in the HVAC program at BCIT, successfully completing her 4th-year apprenticeship, and also holds certification as a Plumbing Backflow Assembly Tester. Outside of work, Kamie stays active in her community—teaching boxing and dancing salsa in her garage gym, continuing to inspire others to move, grow, and stay resilient.
