Executive marketing leader scaling brand positioning and revenue growth across SaaS and multi-location brands.
What I'm looking for
I’m an executive marketing leader who translates go-to-market strategy, demand generation, and customer journey design into measurable revenue growth across B2B SaaS, multi-location, consumer, and home-services businesses. I bring 15+ years leading brand transformation, lifecycle marketing, and revenue-aligned marketing organizations with commercial scope across $40M+ P&L.
At Feazel, I helped drive revenue from $5M to $40M in three years through strategic repositioning, omnichannel acquisition, and multi-market expansion. I directed a complete rebrand and architected an omnichannel engine that delivered 100% year-over-year sales growth for two consecutive years and 50% growth in year three.
As Chief Marketing Officer at DuelingAxes, I built a category-defining experiential brand from concept to $20M+ in revenue, scaling from one to five locations across two states. I established approximately 90% category share across core operating markets and increased direct bookings to 60% of total reservations, strengthening first-party customer ownership.
As co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer at RKd Solutions, I scaled a SaaS platform to 127+ customers and $5M+ ARR in under three years by defining positioning and building repeatable inbound-led growth. I led the end-to-end marketing engine across brand, web, inbound, pipeline creation, and lifecycle programs—supporting 100% client retention over three years while improving inbound demand through SEO, content, and conversion optimization.
