I solve problems using digital marketing methods that best fit and make sense to my clients. I love what I do for many reasons, but these are a few that fuel my passion & gets results:• Problem solving: More technically speaking, marketing forensics.• Educating: Love the feeling when leadership responds, “You can do that?”. Keep clients in the know.• Learning then Adapting: Listening to concerns and responding with personalized solutions• Testing & Data: Just another way to eliminate poor performance while reaching goals faster!• Optimization: Making the most out of current assets before any investment.I could quote numbers like ROI & KPI’s, but without the full list of data sets, strategy & goals, these numbers are easily taken out of context. I run strategies with full transparency and simplistic understanding. One constant in digital marketing, failure provides data, what you do with it determines success.

First startup business. Identified a upward trending demand for on-site IT services & repair. Worked with the SBA & Angel Investors to obtain funding successfully. Grew business YOY 150%. With success came the need to further educate myself on business operations, sales & marketing, customer service and compliance. With the help of a handful of very successful entrepreneurs as mentors, I learned what it takes to build a business from the ground up. More importantly, learned growth strategies, diversification of revenue streams, cash flow, payroll, on-boarding and management styles. In 2007 decided I needed to further my experience through formal training, became a silent partner and entered the corporate side.
