I’m a passionate and commercially driven marketing generalist with over 15 years’ experience developing and executing data-backed marketing strategies across B2B, B2C, and DTC brands. I have a proven track record in revenue growth, focusing on digital marketing, AI optimization, SEO/AEO, ABM campaigns, CRO, content marketing, demand generation campaigns, brand building, event management, and performance marketing across Meta, LinkedIn, Google, Reddit, and TikTok. I’ve built marketing departments from the ground up, led high-performing teams, managed budgets ensuring every penny counts, and driven measurable growth through data-led creativity and customer-first demand generation. I thrive in environments that blend innovation and pace, where I'm able to be a player coach, drive meaningful tactics, build and execute “test and learn” demand generation strategies, and build brands people believe in with measurable results. I’ve led multi-channel marketing efforts for SaaS, B2B and D2C brands, establishing ABM programs, PLG initiatives, and data-driven campaigns that accelerate deal cycles and improve retention. I’m energized by building teams, optimizing operations with automation and analytics, and delivering measurable ROI through customer-centric demand generation and brand campaigns.
