Travis Boyco

Over the past decade, I’ve honed my expertise as a graphic designer, UI designer, and marketer to offer engaging digital and print experiences, lasting designs, impactful storytelling, and tailored marketing campaigns. Working with clients across different industries, whether in advocacy, sustainability, IT, education, healthcare, or finance, my goal has always been to generate solutions that are aesthetically sound and functional while meeting the specific needs of my clients. 

Before starting my own business, Travis Boyco Creative, and working with the team at Sparked Digital, I was a Marketing and Communications Manager at GHD (Advisory and Digital), a leading professional services company operating in the global markets of engineering, architecture, digital technology, and advisory services.

I have a Master’s Degree from Toronto Metropolitan University, a Bachelor’s from the University of Toronto, and an Ontario College Diploma from Fanshawe College. 

KJ Aiello

I work as a freelance writer and journalist, writing for B2B and B2C companies in entrepreneurship, healthcare, and industrial manufacturing. My other writing, which includes essays, op-eds, book and film reviews, and reported pieces, have been published in The Globe and Mail, Toronto Life, The Walrus and Chatelaine, to name a few. 

Having diversified my work, I am always excited to work with both new and established clients, zeroing in on the problems, and helping to find the right voice and solutions for their communications needs. Working with the team at Sparked has been the perfect opportunity to flex my creative and solutions-focused approach. 

My other work, which includes a national award-winning essay, has also led me to write my debut book, The Monster and the Mirror, which will be published in September 2024. 

When not working, I’m writing my second book and still waiting for my very own personal dragon. In the meantime, I have my cats.

I began my career twenty years ago as a music journalist in Toronto. Since then, my work has spanned copywriting, editing, proofreading, and creative consulting within traditional and digital media, and marketing and advertising spheres. 

I’ve had the pleasure of working across a diverse range of industries including automotive, pharmaceutical, consumer goods, not-for-profit, finance, energy, corporate communications, B2B and B2C endeavours, and wellness. 

The creative and problem-solving aspect of my work is where I find joy. Any opportunity to use a unique approach is as fulfilling as it is challenging, in the best way possible. 

In my spare time, I also work as the editor-in-chief for a niche publishing house specializing in fine and collector’s editions. I’m a voracious reader, and am deeply interested in painting and print-making, traditional craft, folklore, video games, making music, intriguing scents, and gardening. Coffee is life.

With nearly a decade of experience as a content and marketing strategist, and demand generation lead problem-solver, I’ve led marketing teams across a variety of industries. My focus has been primarily in B2B Software and SaaS.

The diversity of the work is why I do what I do. Learning about new industries, emerging technologies and collaborating to problem-solve with new clients is always a thrill. Marketing lets me leverage creativity and imagination while balancing critical thinking and data analysis.

When not helping our clients, I’m a massive sports fan, foodie, and travel enthusiast, preferably enjoying all three at the same time.
