This month we are spotlighting Marketing Assistant, Bree Heightchew. Bree has been with V-Soft for nearly a year and already has made a huge impact. Recently, she has been taking on a new role as the Events Coordinator. Her bright personality and go-getter attitude are two of the biggest reasons why Bree is an excellent addition to our V-Soft family!
What Brought You to V-Soft and What is Your Experience In?

Before V-Soft, I was working in Planning and Development and as a photographer. I had recently completed my degree in Public Relations and Journalism and was looking for something more in my field.
I had done a lot of marketing and event planning for a local theatre and knew that was where my heart was. That was when I found V-Soft! I'm so grateful to have joined such a fun and amazing team!
Any Interesting Stories in Your Line of Work?

Bree at the Cliffs of Moher with friends, Jack and Shannon.
With photography specifically, I get the opportunity to meet so many incredible people, all with their own unique stories. Recently, I traveled to Ireland to celebrate the new year and that's where I met Jack and Shannon.
Jack found out that I was a photographer (and that I specialized in couples and engagements) and jumped at the chance. Thanks to his coordination, I was able to photograph him proposing to his girlfriend, Shannon at the Cliffs of Moher.
It looked and felt like an absolute fairytale, and it was an experience I will never forget!
What Do You Enjoy Doing in Your Free Time?

In my free time, I enjoy anything related to music. I grew up in a very musical family and have been going to concerts and theatre productions (or being in them) from a very young age. I think the coolest experience I've gotten from that so far was singing in Whitney Hall at the Kentucky Performing Arts Center.
And, of course, any chance I get, I'm traveling. Most recently I have traveled the loop of Ireland's most iconic cities and, my favorite destination, British Columbia, Canada - somewhere I recommend to everyone!
What's a Fun Fact About Yourself?

I wrote and directed my own short film that got to play on the big screen and am a (small time) award-winning director!
Any Favorite Things to Do in Louisville?

Bree exploring city rooftops with her friends and her brother.
I love exploring the city and finding new fun architecture and city views. I love getting to find cool new perspectives, especially from the parking garages in the city, of all places. I think Louisville is beautiful, in general, but my favorite point-of-view is from a rooftop!
