OVBB Podcast is excited about our latest partnership with Startup Ottawa Valley, which supports rural members through various biz resources, networking events, workshops, and highlights diverse and innovated businesses and entrepreneurs in our community.
Startup Ottawa Valley is a network through the Upper Ottawa Valley Chamber of Commerce, whose mission is to connect with the entrepreneurship community across the Ottawa Valley.
Marie-Josée (MJ) Lévesque holds graduate degrees in library science and business administration, is a certified lrofessional coach and is the proud owner of the newest handmade pottery shop in Pembroke!
During the pandemic when there was a sense of panic, uncertainty and unpredictable lockdowns and closures, MJ realized that her artistic and creative passion was leading her in a new direction, taking her down the entrepreneurial road, which we all know has its bumps, road blocks, and detours but in the end - is worth the drive to get to our destination.
Bumpy Roads Studio offers contemporary-looking functional pottery that is timeless! For those looking at creating their own handmade pottery and learning the craft, MJ also holds in-person clay nights at her studio, as well as her Summer "Claycation" where clay enthusiasts can enjoy a week of fun exploration of the pottery process!
