Founder/ Main Organizer
Elora Barnes
Hey Everyone! Thank you so much for your interest in the Made for Me Marketplace! I'm extremely excited to build this community and meet you all!
Here is a little bit about me.
Born and raised in Toronto, i've always had a passion for bringing people together and celebrating community achievements. I have always loved being where the people are, and found myself planning small events among my circle. This love of people and organization led me to enroll in the Special Events Management program at George Brown College.
Upon graduation, I applied to internships in Los Angeles in hopes of furthering my career and traveling the world. Things were looking promising until... the infamous Covid 19 pandemic hit. Like many of us, I had to put my dreams on hold.
Now we're healing
Now the community can get together once more
Now it's time to promote local vendors and get some much needed revenue into the hands of our hard working artisans, artists, crafters and re-sellers.
As a clothing re-seller myself, I understand the need for markets as a tool to promote, sell and network. I want Made for Me Marketplace to be that resource for all.
Thanks for taking the time to read my bio! I can't wait to meet you <3

Hey Y’all thank you for taking the time to read a bit about us, allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Travis Thompson. I was born and raised in Etobicoke, ON and I have always been interested in community.
I have always had a passion for people in different capacities throughout my life, even taking a brief stint to study psychology at Laurier university. However I realized my true calling was at George Brown College where I recently graduated from the Special Events Management program at George Brown College.
It’s also where I discovered my passion for events, Since graduating I have immersed myself in as many events around the city as possible and I am so proud to be part of the Made for Me Marketplace Team.
My goals when it comes to events is to create a positive memorable experience for everyone involved.
