Hello, my name is Clavel (cluh-val), a public relations enthusiast located in El Paso, Texas with experience in the financial industry, media relations, events and social media. I am looking to broaden my scope in the industry and am eager to reenter the public relations field after a five year hiatus. I have a passion for creating compelling narratives and building strong media relationships. I lived in California for three years while attending Biola University where I majored in public relations. Six months after graduating, I returned to my hometown of El Paso, Texas where I began my public relations career at the largest credit union in El Paso. I am currently looking for a hybrid or remote position with hopes of advancing my career further while being present with my family.
