I'm a Google, Microsoft and Meta certified PPC and SEO expert with 20 years of experience in e-commerce, PPC, and SEO, driving annual revenues exceeding £85 million. I have a passion for digital marketing and have worked with well-known brands, managing teams and large scale projects across Europe. I'm keen to take on freelance, contract, or part-time roles that fit around my family's active lifestyle. As a family man, I value work-life balance and enjoy spending time with my wife, a former Olympic rower, and my kids who are excelling in their sports. While I don't consider myself a hardcore developer, I have practical knowledge in HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Python which complements my marketing expertise. I look forward to new opportunities where I can contribute my wealth of digital marketing experience to help businesses grow.
