The Conveyor Belt is all about raising the profile of Vancouver’s talented designers and stylish citizens on a global level, creating a positive community network. We love hearing about local events, trends, new stores and designers – so if you have the scoop don’t hesitate to contact us.

Terri Potratz, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
I have been a freelance fashion writer for a number of years, contributing to both local and international publications.  I’ve  also worked as a stylist and costumer for film, television and editorial photo shoots. In addition to managing The Conveyor Belt over the years, I was the staff writer and photographer for INFAMOUS Magazine and later the Style Editor for NowPublic, and remain dedicated to promoting Vancouver style within the global fashion community. In 2008 I also launched larry. designs, a knitwear company whose mandate is to support BC farmers and artisans by using locally sourced materials to construct unique and modern designs.

Jenn Wint, Contributing writer
Jenn has lived abroad for a number of years, in both Australia and the UK, but has recently returned to Vancouver and has a unique perspective on how the lifestyle and fashion here varies from elsewhere in the world.  She has worked both as a magazine editor and a business development executive, and has a BA in English from the University of Victoria.

Kris Krug, Contributing photographer
Publishing voraciously since 1998, Kris’ diverse talent and unique balance of aesthetics and technology is well-known throughout the Interwebs. After launching and managing successful online magazines in San Francisco, Kris returned to Vancouver – where he’d attended college studying philosophy and communications – to apply his knowledge as President of Drupal hosting start-up, Bryght. As well known for his unique, ultra-personal photographic style as for his business acumen, KK is in demand as a speaker about social media, the future of entertainment and public relations, and growing businesses across borders. Alas, he is often busy shooting models and rockstars so he can’t make it to *all* the events, but if you are quick enough, you might catch him before he jets off to another country, another gig, or to strike another deal as new President of web agency Raincity Studios.
