About

After leading Demand Curve’s growth marketing agency through Y Combinator in 2019, I founded and later sold my own agency, Ascenial (acquired in 2023). Across both businesses, I oversaw more than $100M in paid media spend, primarily for DTC and consumer brands.

Earlier in my career, I helped drive an eight-figure acquisition (Hootsuite) by scaling AdEspresso’s growth engine from $1M ARR to $4M ARR in under a year.

Outside of DTC, I've worked with large enterprise organizations: Microsoft, Shopify, Hootsuite, & Brave Browser.

DTC/Consumer Brands I've Done Growth For:

  • Imperfect Foods (food delivery, ~$700M valuation)

  • Outschool (homeschooling courses, $3B+ valuation)

  • Brave (browser, grew to 100 million MAU)

  • Perfect Keto (supplements)

  • Naked & Thriving (skin care)

  • Crowd Cow (meal delivery)

  • Leon & George (indoor plant delivery)

  • MDHearingAid (hearing aids)

  • Almond Cow (kitchen appliance, retail)

  • With Clarity (jewelry; diamonds)

  • William Painter (sunglasses & jewelry)

  • Red Light Therapy Co (health and wellness)

  • Lumenearz (concert ear plugs)

  • Joon (kids learning app)

  • HeyDoctor (telehealth app)

  • Audm (audio journalism app)
