Publication Features

Ava Van Snow, as well as her content, has been featured in the following companies during her employment with past employers.

Preeti Shridhar, Commissioner, Woodinville Water District

“Ava was a standout member of our communications team, demonstrating an impressive ability to lead and execute high-level initiatives. She played an instrumental role in crafting and implementing strategic communication campaigns, including overseeing the marketing and public relations efforts for major city events.

One such initiative was the Renton Multicultural Festival, where she developed and executed a comprehensive marketing and communications strategy. She seamlessly integrated graphic design, social media, video content, and public outreach to enhance community engagement, while also coordinating media coverage and securing sponsorships that elevated the event’s visibility.

Beyond her expertise in marketing and event promotion, Ava exhibited a strong ability to help the team implement effective communication plans tailored to diverse audiences. She worked closely with several team members to enhance messaging strategies, ensuring clarity and consistency across all platforms. Her proactive approach allowed her to identify communication gaps and devise innovative solutions that strengthened the city’s outreach efforts.

One of Ava’s most notable qualities is her ability to foster meaningful relationships with stakeholders, community organizations, and media representatives. Her exceptional interpersonal skills and professionalism made her a trusted advisor and a sought-after collaborator on high-profile projects. Her leadership and expertise were evident in her work on initiatives such as the communications planning for the Family First Community Center, spearheaded by former Seattle Seahawks player Doug Baldwin. She managed messaging for the project, secured media attention, and engaged key community members to ensure the initiative’s success.

In summary, Ava Van Snow is an exceptional leader and communicator with a unique blend of creativity, strategic insight, and interpersonal skills. She has the ability to lead projects, engage diverse stakeholders, and navigate complex communication challenges.”

Former Mayor Denis Law, City of Renton

“Ava played a major role in our communication efforts for our initiative, using her talent and skills in the development of communication tools and sources of dispersing information to the entire community. The effort involved every department and city employee, and was the catalyst for creating the Mayor’s Inclusive Task Force, represented by every ethnic, religious and special interest group in the city.

Her role in helping to implement this comprehensive undertaking was significant. The program was highly successful and became a model for other cities in the state and other parts of the country.

Ava quickly earned the respect of fellow employees and department administrators. Her role had her working directly with every department in developing new marketing and communication materials to disseminate to the public.

She was a good team-player and also worked well with city council members, the media and the public.”

Benita Horn, Benita R. Horn & Associates

“Ms. Snow worked with me to create the communications plan to help in promoting the event and attracting the most participants.

The multi-faceted plan that Ms. Snow developed was so encompassing that it became the template for communications for most major events sponsored or co-sponsored by the city.

She is a self-starter and able to complete major tasks based on overarching concepts versus a quantity of detail.

She is well organized in her approach and maintains documentation supporting her recommendations. She is innovative in her approaches and introduced approaches to this event and others that differed from past practices.

She is strong leader and comfortable guiding the work of others and in providing them with affirming and constructive feedback. She is extremely knowledgeable and is very generous in sharing her knowledge and expertise with others. She is strong team member.”
