Shannon Deep

Where: Pittsburgher turned New Yorker now living in and loving Paris, France

Experience: 18 years as a professional writer and interdisciplinary storyteller, 10 years in brand marketing, and 6 as an in-house startup marketer. (Those years overlap; headshot is current.) From dramaturge and script consultant in the mean (non-profit theater) streets of New York to brand strategist, editorial director, and brand director at unicorns and up-and-comers alike, Shannon and Kevan started Bonfire in 2023 to do brand work that matters with integrity, curiosity, and heart.

About your retreat hosts: Bonfire Collective

Bonfire is part-agency, part-community, and all-Trojan Horse for what our brand really stands for: a more creative world for everyone.

With backgrounds in creative disciplines that somehow led to 15 years in startup marketing, Kevan and Shannon always dreamed about crafting real-life, in-person experiences that take people out of the knowledge-word grind and show them that a more creative, connected, and fulfilling relationship with work is possible.

Kevan and Shannon are excited to welcome you to The Soft Reset and look forward to many meaningful chats around the (literal) bonfire!
