Let's connect


I believe the CMO needs to be as focused on results as the CFO. With an interest in emerging ​Marketing tech such as AI, as well as a deep background in the fundamentals of customer experience ​and research insights, I marry the art and science of brand building. My management style is based on ​nurturing talent through feedback, consensus building, and mentorship. I build team momentum by ​celebrating wins, then raising the bar.

I'm frequently asked about marketing and business growth in key trade publications. It's always fun to ​help my company spread the word as well as share my opinions. My secret trick to a great interview is ​quite simple... speak slowly! When reporters are talking to many people about a topic, the ones who ​speak at a pace where they can get write down the sound bites, are the people who get their ​companies in the press!

I have been privilidged to work at companies that inspire me to manage marketing teams and create ​impactful work. From simple social media posts, to large multi-media, cross-channel campaigns that ​drive presence on stages and generate millions in revenue, I tell stories that create results through ​marketing leadership.


Awards

Sample insights

This award-winning ​campaign was ​designed to elevate ​awareness and drive ​leads for a B2B SaaS ​company new to the ​ad market. Using ​elegant design to ​simplify the data, it ​created a 13X ROI.

As my company's ​Chief Strategy Officer ​representative to the ​World Economic ​Forum, I researched ​the implications of ​digital media with ​some of the world's ​most influential ​thinkers.

To launch a new ​product, I created a ​charter program for ​top brands, resulting ​in massive sales, and ​winning the Journal ​of Advertising ​Research paper of ​the year.

As Biden was ​choosing his running ​mate, I developed an ​infographic ​showcasing my ​company's ability to ​deeply understand ​voters' preferences.

To highlight the ​value of companies ​I've worked with, I've ​authored voluminous ​case studies and ​sales collateral over ​the years, such as ​this case study on ​how to unlock social ​media measurement.

As bot fraud rapidly ​increased in the ​industry, I wrote a ​guidebook for brands ​to help them ​understand this ​techy topic in a ​friendly way.

Everyone loves the ​funny ads in football ​games but do they ​deliver results? I ​launched an annual ​report with actual ​brand awareness and ​outcomes from ​advertising's biggest ​night of the year.

Volunteer marketing

I served on my ​town's Economic ​Development ​Agency for years and ​created market ​analyses and ​promotional ​materials to drive ​local investment.

In order to showcase ​successful ​businesses in my ​community, I created ​business profiles that ​highlight how ​companies can grow ​with support from ​the town.

To bolster sales to ​top publishers, I ran a ​study on how ​placement in quality ​media delivers a halo ​effect for brands, ​then presented the ​results with Digital ​Content Next.

Digital spending ​increased quickly, ​but brands didn't ​know which tactics ​would deliver results. ​I authored a meta-​analysis to show ​where to spend on ​digital advertising.

To help fill the seats ​for the local High ​School musical, I ​designed a social ​media campaign to ​sell tickets based on ​a countdown to ​opening night.

We are in the infancy of AI, but it is going to change everything about how CMOs do their jobs.
