co-Executive of marketing

LAUREN

AVA

I’m Ava! I was a member of the marketing team as Director of Online Presence, where I managed and maintained the CSS website. Through this role, I’ve been building my knowledge of website development and management, marketing strategies, and gaining experience in e-commerce. Outside of school, I enjoy traveling, photography, running, spending time outdoors, and crafting jewelry.

Hi, I’m Lauren! I was previously involved in the CSS through the Events portfolio as Director of External Relations for the Greater Victoria Business Banquet (GVBB)  This role showed me the community, empowerment and creativity the CSS allows students to have. I’m eager to take on this leadership role and help increase engagement and excitement around all things CSS. Outside of academics, I love being outdoors, skiing, boating, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.

We are both super excited to be Co-Executives of marketing for 2026-2027! With our incredible team we aim to increase engagement across all platforms, streamline content to align with our brand palette, and implement new streams of marketing to create more awareness surrounding CSS. This year we will enhance the balance between professionalism and fun making CSS an even more engaging and dynamic community for the commerce student body.
