Brandon Vander Heide
Owner / Operator
I started The Pastime as a way to support local businesses bring their brands to life, or giving them a fresh new look. Backed by 10+ years actively working in corporate marketing, I take a more personal, one-on-one approach to working with companies in the community. I keep things casual, collaborative, and honest—no jargon, no ego, just solid work that feels right for you and your business.
Cheers!
