About

Senior Growth Strategist | Paid Social & Performance Marketing ExpertEngineering High-Velocity Growth for 8 and 9-Figure Brands

I specialize in transforming stable e-commerce operations into aggressive market leaders. With a career built on scaling brands from seven-figure months to nine-figure annual trajectories, I lead growth by bridging the gap between high-level strategy and technical execution.

As a Senior Growth Strategist and former Head of Growth, I don’t just manage ad spend—I engineer growth engines. My approach is rooted in a "test-and-learn" methodology that prioritizes unit economics, operational efficiency, and profitable scale. Whether it's expanding into new international territories or pivoting a brand’s creative ethos to unlock rapid acquisition, I focus on the levers that move the needle on the P&L.. Core Expertise- Performance Marketing: Expert-level execution across Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google (Search/Shopping/YouTube), TikTok, and LinkedIn.

  • Growth Strategy & Scaling: Transitioning brands from linear growth to exponential "drop-style" creative strategies and high-velocity campaign structures.

  • Full-Funnel Optimization: Advanced proficiency in Shopify conversion optimization, Google Tag Manager (GTM) architecture, and LTV-based cohort analysis.

  • Strategic Operations: Aligning marketing demand with 3PL operations and inventory forecasting to ensure scale remains sustainable and profitable.

Strategic Milestones- Rapid Scale Execution: Proven track record of taking brands from consistent monthly baselines to record-breaking revenue peaks through aggressive multi-channel optimization.- International Expansion: Successfully launched and scaled brands across US, UK, and Australian markets by identifying high-value personas and localized creative opportunities.

  • Creative-Led Growth: Pioneered "drop" structures and emotion-driven creative strategies that significantly lowered CPAs while allowing for infinite budget scaling.

The Toolkit- Paid Media: Meta Ads, Google Ads (SEM/PMax), YouTube, Bing, TikTok, LinkedIn.- Data & Analytics: Google Analytics 4, GTM, Web Analytics, Microsoft Excel (Advanced Modeling).

  • Growth & Retention: Customer Acquisition (CAC), Lifetime Value (LTV), Lead Generation, Marketing Automation, and Shopify Ecosystem.

  • Leadership: Budget Management, Team Leadership, and Go-to-Market (GTM) Strategy.

I partner with ambitious brands ready to move past "safe" growth and execute the bold, data-backed strategies required to dominate their category.
