About

Marketing, social business & Vancouver

I’m Kelvin (KC) Claveria. I’m a Marketing generalist with particular interest on everything digital. My goal is to help organizations and businesses increase awareness about their brands using social media and other marketing tools. I use this blog to share thoughts, tips and tricks about marketing and social media. I also occasionally blog about the beautiful city of Vancouver.

Previously, my written work has appeared on TalentEgg, Metro Vancouver, AIESEC SFU’s blog, SFU Online Learning Community, and SFU Volunteer Services’ ENGAGE blog. Please see my portfolio for some samples.

A recent Marketing and Communication graduate from the SFU Beedie School of Business, I currently work part-time for Dunn Public Relations.

Diverse Experience from a wide range of industries

Offering experience in social media and email marketing, blogging, graphic design, and public relations, I’m still on the look out for a full-time employment opportunity in Vancouver. Previously, I’ve held paid communications and marketing roles at eBay, Inc., SFU Volunteer Services, and Simon Fraser University.

In addition to my volunteer experience, I’ve also done some freelance work for a local start-up. Please see my LinkedIn profile page for more.

I’m also looking to volunteer my time with non-profit organizations dealing with cancer or environmental sustainability. Volunteer work has been a huge part of my life — some organizations that I’ve been involved with in the past include SFU Career Services, AIESEC SFU, the SFU Communication Student Union, the BC Chapter of IABC, SFU Volunteer Services, and the Leaders of Tomorrow program by the Vancouver Board of Trade.

Outside work, I do Bikram yoga, workout, read books, listen to and write about music, and watch the Food Network.
