ABOUT
Encore Graphics, located in Saskatoon, SK (Treaty 6), was founded in 2016 by Gabrielle Giroux, a proud Denesųłiné woman from Hatchet Lake First Nation (Treaty 10). With a President's List Diploma in Graphic Design, and a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing from the University of Saskatchewan, Gabrielle is dedicated to offering top-tier creative designs and marketing services. Specializing in work through various fields, Encore Graphics helps clients make a lasting impact and stand out from the crowd with clean, professional, and creative designs tailored to their specific needs.
The origins of Encore Graphics are deeply rooted in Gabrielle Giroux's journey as a creative professional, a musician, and a student. As a young member of the band, The Wolfe, Gabrielle took on the challenge of designing the group's promotional materials. Driven by a desire to support a broader range of clients and persue this new interest, Gabrielle founded Encore Graphics in 2016. This passion for graphic design continued beyond high school, leading her to formalize her skills by earning a diploma in Graphic Design, earning President's List honours, in 2018-2019 from the Centre for Distance Education.
Gabrielle's work quickly gained recognition, particularly among Indigenous organizations, where her understanding of cultural significance and symbolism has been invaluable. Gabrielle also expanded her services to academic institutions and projects, creating compelling designs for reports and publications that communicate complex ideas with clarity and impact.
As her business grew, so did her expertise. In 2023, Gabrielle added marketing services to Encore Graphics, reflecting her pursuit of a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing at the University of Saskatchewan. Convocating with Distinctions in 2024, Gabrielle's comprehensive approach now helps clients develop their brands and messaging to reach their target audiences effectively.
Encore Graphics continues to thrive under Gabrielle's leadership, offering services that include branding, website development, publication and print design, brand development, music design and promotions, marketing strategies, and communications design. Gabrielle Giroux's commitment to excellence and her deep understanding of both design and marketing make Encore Graphics a trusted partner for clients across various sectors.
“It’s been a pleasure working with Gabrielle. She has a great design sense and her growing knowledge and understanding of marketing is a great complement to her work as a designer.”
