About Ava
Ava Creto graduated from Southern Connecticut State University in May 2026 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, concentrating in Marketing. She was a member of the SCSU Dance Team all four years and served as Head of Social Media from 2023 to 2025, leading the team's content strategy and brand development across TikTok and Instagram with Canva graphics, promotional posts, posters, and branded templates.
Ava completed Develomark's Winter 2026 Cohort with a strong focus on communication, collaboration, and real world marketing execution. Working directly on live client projects, she gained hands on experience in how digital marketing strategies are built, executed, and refined in an agency environment. She wrote blogs, planned sitemaps, wireframed and published pages in Duda, joined client onboarding and AEO discovery calls, and designed Meta ads in Canva, one of which was selected for a live campaign.
Today, Ava holds two roles at Develomark. As Cohort Program Manager since May 2026, she leads the same program that trained her, guiding each class through AI SEO, AEO, and AI driven search visibility work on live client accounts. She coordinates weekly deliverables, partners with leadership to strengthen LLM visibility and Google and Bing search performance, and manages the Cohort's presence on LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook. In September 2026, she also became Marketing Coordinator, serving as a primary point of contact between leadership, clients, and internal teams while supporting client communications, account management, and seasonal campaigns. Alongside her work at Develomark, Ava has served since July 2026 as Content Marketing and TikTok Coordinator at Pure Skin Med Spa, where she builds TikTok and Instagram Reels strategies around emerging trends, sounds, and formats, and plans, films, and edits short form videos showcasing treatments, providers, patient experiences, and behind the scenes moments.
