About

Revenue is the goal. My approach treats marketing as a profit center that drives revenue and business outcomes, not optics. Growth marketing, digital marketing, and demand generation leader with over 17 years of experience building high-velocity revenue engines for startups, SMBs, and global B2B and B2C enterprises. My career passion is helping forward-thinking organizations scale through marketing excellence. Whether I'm building a B2B product GTM strategy from the ground up or optimizing enterprise-scale customer acquisition, I bring a mix of long-vision strategy and practical hands-on execution. I specialize in the strategic alignment of marketing across demand & lead gen, full-funnel lifecycle efficiency, and pipeline impact. When performance data, innovative technology, strategic thinking, and effective execution intersect with commercial rigor, anything is possible. Some hard skills I've learned over the years: Performance Marketing: Advanced expertise across paid search, paid social, PPL, affiliates, display, SEO, content strategy, and retargeting with a relentless focus on CAC optimization and LTV growth. Revenue Growth and Budget Management: Owned up to $36M budgets and delivered $94.4M in annual marketing-attributed revenue. Full-Funnel and Lifecycle Marketing: Architected lead scoring systems, MQL-to-SQL velocity improvement, KPI governance, and win-back programs that maximize customer LTV and unify Marketing, Sales, and Finance stakeholders. AI Integration: GenAI implementation, prompt engineering, and agentic AI processes that improve workflow efficiency. AI attribution & measurement that clarifies full-funnel marketing contribution toward revenue and ROI. Data & Analytics: Advanced KPI reporting integration across digital channels, GA4, multiple CRM systems (Salesforce, Slate, HubSpot), and marketing automation platforms (HubSpot, Marketo, Pardot) to drive high-stakes business decisions. Business strategy and leadership skills I've learned: Commercial Alignment: I act as the strategic bridge between technical marketing execution and boardroom objectives, translating complex data into clear business narratives. Mentorship and Team Building: Deeply committed to coaching leadership, having built and led teams integrating marketing, web dev, SEO, and analytics. I build collaborative, data-driven environments where teams feel safe openly discussing the issues of the day. Operational Efficiency: Relentless 80/20 rule practitioner focused on forward velocity, CAC and ROI optimization, and eliminating low ROI initiatives.
