Hi, I’m Nick Russell, a marketing and growth analyst with 15+ years’ experience helping digital products understand what’s really driving growth. I specialise in attribution, experimentation, and full-funnel analysis, connecting marketing activity to real user behaviour across acquisition, conversion, and retention. I’m known for turning complex data into clear, practical insights that teams can actually use to refine targeting, improve creative, and optimise budget allocation. I build scalable measurement and reporting that translate data into decisions, and I enjoy collaborating across marketing, product, and data teams to drive tangible business impact.
