What I Do
Ten years of organic growth work across SaaS, e-commerce, and tech — the areas where I go deepest.
Organic Growth Strategy
Data-driven roadmaps that identify the highest-leverage opportunities across search, content, and distribution.
Content Strategy & Editorial
Editorial planning, briefs, long-form articles, and copy engineered to rank, convert, and build authority.
SEO & E-Commerce Search
Audits, keyword research, site architecture, and product listing optimization across Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and your own storefront.
AI-Powered Workflows
Custom AI systems that cut production time without sacrificing quality. Built from real in-house experience.
AEO & LLM Optimization
Schema markup, entity building, and structured content so your brand gets cited by AI — not just ranked.
How I Work
I embed into teams, advise founders, and collaborate with operators — whatever the role calls for.
In-house & Full-time
I’ve led organic growth as an embedded member of marketing teams — owning strategy, managing editorial calendars, building content systems, and reporting up to leadership. I work cross-functionally and know how to drive results without creating overhead.
Advisory & Consulting
I work selectively with founders and operators who need a senior growth perspective without the full-time overhead. Engagements typically focus on strategy, audits, and building systems that the internal team can own going forward.
Collaboration & Speaking
Open to collaborating with other practitioners, contributing to editorial projects, and speaking on SEO, AEO, AI-driven content, and organic growth strategy. If you’re building something interesting, reach out.
