About

I’m AI first-performance marketing leader and technical growth marketer with 10+ years of experience driving multi-channel acquisition across Google Ads, Meta, YouTube, and programmatic platforms. I specialize in optimizing CAC and MER while connecting tracking pipelines from GA4/GTM through ad accounts and web events to improve post-click conversion rate and overall commercial return.

Beyond media buying, I build custom AI agents and automation workflows to remove manual overhead in ad ops, audits, reporting, and client insights. I enjoy translating data and first-party signals into cross-channel plans, improving attribution and conversion tracking, and partnering closely with teams to grow lifetime value and measurable business outcomes.
