Project Campfire

Hello

I'm Sunny Fassler, a journalist, writer, creator and storyteller working with some of the biggest, boldest and brightest brands in sports, lifestyle and adventure travel.

ABOUT ME

At first, it was warm, cozy and dark...

Now, I'm a journalist, writer, creator and storyteller - sometimes liked, sometimes loved, for my carefully crafted stories and content creations.

I’ll throw, jump or shoot myself out of anything for a great story, unless it’s my day off or if mom is watching.

Besides looking for love online (obviously for my work), I engage in activities involving H₂O + board, friends, reads, travels, adventures, coffee - and on good days, all at the same time.

JOURNALIST

I always wanted to be a journalist. Out in the field - at the fringes of our maps - uncovering and reporting harsh truths and groundbreaking news. Until reality hit. Turns out I hate traditional news reporting. I like stories. I like the outdoors, the adventure. I like the grit under my nails or the wind against my face. Thus, for the last decade or so, I have carved out a niche for myself in the action sports media landscape, far away from the pumpkin fair, north of San Diego, I first reported on.

WRITER

Over the years, I've chased stories far and wide—over oceans, between timezones, across continents. Writing is my beat, my way to connect, communicate and delve into the heart of our world. My approach? Simple. Feet firmly planted, eyes wide open for the untold, the overlooked—stories big and small. As a result, my work has been featured in major outdoor, surf, action sports, travel, and adventure publications. And my words live on websites of brands like Firewire, Volcom, New Balance, Billabong, Hype Energy, and many more.

CREATOR

In the thick of it, that's where you'll find me. Not only as the creator, writer, and host of Duct Tape Theory - a show that blends the appeal of documentaries with the intimate storytelling of podcasts and the power of words, but also in the shadows, on the fringes and thoroughly behind the scenes, creating narratives that resonate and linger for the world wide web, film, and radio long after the credits roll.

STORYTELLER

Stories, man, they are special. project campfire was born from my deep-seated love for storytelling. This is where my heart beats the loudest - the twists and turns, the build-up the encore, storytelling done right is where the rubber meets the road. Brand storytelling has the power to educate, transform and entertain all in one breath. My fascination lies in creating story-driven content that stands the test of time, crafting compelling narratives for lifestyle, sports, and adventure brands worldwide - that's the promise.
