What can I help you with?

Performance Marketing

Multi-million-dollar budgets across Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, Taboola, and OutBrain — optimized for revenue, not just clicks.

SEO & GEO

Technical SEO, product-led SEO, and AI search visibility across Google, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini.

Marketing Technology

My biggest passion, I've had the pleasure of implementing some great tech stacks.

Data & Attribution

End-to-end tracking, conversion integrity, and dashboards that connect spend to actual revenue outcomes.

AI & Automation

Autonomous ad agents, AI-assisted content pipelines, and the workflow automation that lets teams focus on strategy instead of manual tasks.

Operations

Marketing ops, CRM architecture, lead qualification, and the processes that make growth repeatable at scale.

Multi-Class Mastery

Six disciplines I've climbed over 11 years — from where each one started to where I operate now.

None of these climbs happened in isolation. Running paid budgets at scale changed how I read data. Owning SEO changed how I briefed engineers. Building inside the terminal changed how I talk to developers. Eleven years in, I run performance marketing, MarTech, SEO, and the website side at Smartworks — and the through-line isn't the tools. It's enough range, taken deep enough in each, to lead all of it. That is what a Head of Digital Marketing actually is.
