Hello, My Name Is Tal Rolande .
I’m a Toronto-based copywriter working at the intersection of art and science.
About Me
My name is Chantal Rolande Kathleen Plourde — but you can call me Tal Rolande. I was born in Scarborough and spent the first part of my life on Lake Simcoe before moving to Ottawa to earn my Bachelor of Arts in English and Communications with a concentration in Image Politics and Persuasion from Carleton University. Now I’m back in Toronto wrapping up a certificate in Digital Analytics at George Brown College.
Currently, I’m a senior copywriter at The Home Depot and the co-founder of Purple Penguin. Over the last 9 years, I’ve held positions at The Home Depot Canada, HomeStars, and Shared Inc. My freelance work has been featured on the Ontario Cannabis Store, Saskatchewan, and BC Cannabis stores for San Rafael ’71, Gage Cannabis and NOYA Cannabis.
