About

I help growing companies untangle the gap between their marketing ambitions and their operational reality, working as an embedded resource inside startups and alongside executive teams at small to mid-size businesses. My work spans rebuilding fragmented tech stacks, developing a marketing analytics infrastructure, and implementing omni-channel marketing strategies. The thread connecting all of it: I understand and solve cross-functional problems so that clients don’t have to hire multiple specialists and risk disjointed solutions.
