What I'm looking for

I’m interested in applying my acquisition and paid media experience to GiveDirectly’s donor growth and direct-cash-transfer mission.

At TapLocal, I execute and optimize Google Ads acquisition programs across US client accounts. My work on search targeting, budgets, and conversion tracking helped reduce wasted spend by 19%, improve lead quality by 20%, and increase landing-page conversion rates by 13%.

As a freelance paid media and growth marketer, I planned and optimized Meta Ads, Google Ads, and selected TikTok campaigns for US and international clients. I tested audiences, creative, offers, and landing pages, achieving a reported average 3.2× ROAS across relevant client campaigns.
