About Cobo Communications

Cobo’s Mission: To help people and organizations communicate effectively so that they can connect and engage with their audiences.

Cobo’s Values: transparency, accuracy, authenticity, and clarity.

My name is Coreen Boucher, and in March 2023, I celebrated 10 years since launching my business!

This past decade of experience and continued studies have brought me to this place in my career where I can bring a well-rounded and strategic approach to writing, editing, and document design.

My purpose is to help nonprofits and individuals create strategic communications that connect, motivate, engage, and make a difference.

I do this by drawing on my studies in public relations, plain language and design, and writing and editing for the web. I also draw on my work in nonprofit communications, small business marketing, and as a copy editor for academics and authors.

I am inspired to help others, especially those driven by a humanitarian or environmental purposes. Every day, I am grateful to be able to use the full spectrum of my educational background in public relations, editing, and creative writing — as well as my BSc in geography and environmental studies — to help small nonprofits with a local or global reach create a safe, vibrant, diverse, and inclusive world.

I am grateful to be able to live and operate my business on Salt Spring Island, BC, which is in the unceded Coast Salish territories of several First Nations, including the W̱SÁNEĆ (Saanich), Quw’utsun (Cowichan), Penelakut, and Stz’uminus (Chemanius). I honour and acknowledge the critical importance of the traditional stewards of this island as they strive to reconnect with their ancestral lands in order to revitalize their cultures, languages, traditional knowledge, and identity.

I proudly and respectfully serve, and am part of, the LGBTQ2S+ community.
