100% Remote Team, US

I help lead a team of fantastically talented eCommerce professionals, with the goal of helping retail and direct-to-consumer brand sites better utilize their digital marketing channels (especially Google Ads, SEO, and incrementality testing). While I still help in client accounts every day, I now spend much of my time on strategic direction and creative.

Following the acquisition of PoolSupplyWorld, my team was responsible for both e-commerce sites, as well as contributing to omni-channel strategies and data-driven marketing projects. As such, I held both titles, one under each brand.

The development and marketing teams were highly collaborative, having both grown from the same efforts. As we grew into full marketing and technology teams, we were able to maintain our agility and creativity as we scale.My role began as a developer, where I designed and ran a formulaic PPC marketing system. From there, I grew the development team, and.

As one of the only software engineers, worked on a broad spectrum of projects from building database and reporting tools, to hardware support and test automation software.

Coldfusion development with a SQL Server backend. I worked primarily on the warehouse management systems. Although that might not SOUND all that fun, it was essentially logistical systems simulation and high data volume reporting and analysis tools. I still consider myself a Build.com alum, as this was really where I first got my hands dirty.

Evocation Group housed several independent consulting contracts that my team and I worked on. It was also the first time I'd ever built something that got big enough to actually rent an office. That was a big deal, if not a big office.

Managed many of the websites within the office of the Provost, and subsidiary offices. Developed custom tools including search utilities and email notification systems using Perl CGI.Of course, during the summers, we inventoried all of the furniture on campus, so I'd been in literally every room of the university, and got to drive a lift-truck right.

3D modeling, texturing, lighting, and 2D digital cell painting for a small digital video and effects division of California State University, Chico. Now, I sit through the credits of movies to spot the names of people I knew from this role, which is really cool.

Chicago, IL, US

I sold home appliances and home theater stuff. The job wasn't great, but I did get to talk to people about stuff I knew a lot about, which now makes me fearless when it comes to starting conversations with strangers. I worked 366 days, so I could say I'd worked "over a year in direct customer service" in a future interview. It never really came up.

I flipped burgers like none other. It barely paid for gas to my summer classes at the local JC between high school semesters, but I learned a lot about grease.Hey, you have to start somewhere. I'm just brave enough to include it on LinkedIn.;)
