Corrina Kapeller
Regional Development Consultant, Destination Development
Tourism Saskatchewan
Corrina Kapeller works for Tourism Saskatchewan as the Regional Development Consultant in the Destination Development Department. Her office is based in Saskatoon, but she works in all regions of the province with existing tourism businesses, new start-ups and new experience providers. Assisting new experience providers in developing and delivering engaging, hands-on, immersive experiences from their special talent, knowledge, or skill is where her passion lies. Before working with Tourism Saskatchewan, Corrina and her family owned and operated a guest ranch business in Northeast Saskatchewan, where they hosted guests from all over the world. This real-life experience is extremely helpful when she works with other operators throughout the province.
Corrina and her husband currently live near Pike Lake Provincial Park and have 2 grown children who frequently visit for a homemade meal, as gardening, cooking, and baking are Corrina’s favourite pastime activities when not at her day job.
