Saul Brown, President and CSO (Chief Story Officer)

Saul has built his career and business out of a wide and healthy range of interests and passions. He spent his early twenties as a wilderness expedition guide on the lakes and waterways of Ontario, helping create memorable experiences for his groups and building connections with one another.

After earning a degree in Geography and Environmental Studies at the University of Victoria, Saul realized the potential of business to be a productive lever for creating social and environmental change. He decided to parlay his environmental education and leadership experience into an MBA in sustainable business from the Bainbridge Graduate Institute (BGI) where Saul Good Gift Co. was born.

Saul appreciates the process of creating exquisite gifts that help people connect with one another and build relationships. He also enjoys working with BC’s best artisans, farmers, social enterprises and small-scale businesses to build community with his business.

Saul currently sits on the Board of LoCo BC and contributes as a member of the Strathcona Business Improvement Association’s Sustainability Committee.

Dan Chalmers, Finance + Operations Manager

Dan joined the Saul Good team in Spring 2011 and is excited to discover more about the interchange between sustainable business, social enterprise and local artisans. After earning a Bachelor of Arts in Geography and Environmental Studies from Middlesex University, Dan spent much of the 90’s travelling to far flung places in the search for adventure. He returned to London, UK in 2001 to complete a postgraduate diploma in Tourism management, focusing on environment and sustainability. Moving to Vancouver in 2005 enabled Dan to further connect with his local community, namely sitting on the board for the Strathcona Community Centre Association and volunteering for the Stanley Park Ecology Society. Having a 3 yr old son and another baby coming very soon heightens Dan’s involvement in a variety of local scenes. He loves to get out in the fresh air and spot bears.
