What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own growth strategy and creative direction together—combining SEO, CRM, testing, and dashboards with strong brand craft. I want transparent, collaborative teams and measurable impact on revenue and audience.

I’m a results-driven Art Director and Growth Marketing Strategist with 10+ years of experience building brand ecosystems, driving audience acquisition, and scaling digital revenue. I translate complex analytics into clear, actionable strategy—delivering outcomes like $1.9M in tracked online revenue, 18,000%+ web traffic growth, and consistent email performance against industry benchmarks. I also build KPI dashboards, run A/B tests, and direct SEO/content work while implementing AI-enabled marketing workflows to scale on-brand production.

I lead with clarity and trust, owning the marketing function from strategy through execution and guiding cross-functional collaboration across creative, digital, and analytics. In freelancing and agency work, I’ve directed brand identity systems, donor acquisition and CRM segmentation, and go-to-market planning—partnering with stakeholders to deliver measurable performance. I’m energized by teams that value transparent communication and continuous improvement, so I can help clients and creatives do their best work.
