Growth strategist and digital marketing leader building acquisition systems that turn budgets into measurable, automated growth.
What I'm looking for
I build acquisition systems that turn budget into measurable growth, and teams that adapt to real-world conditions of Africa. I bring a rare technical edge for marketing: I design my own tools and dashboards to cut dependency on product teams, using analytics and automation to keep performance accountable.
With 8 years of experience across Shell, Vivo Energy, and 20+ startups, I’ve led digital strategy, delivered 60+ campaigns, and achieved +165% organic growth alongside 4:1 ROAS and CAC improvements (including -35% operational time through automation). From managing $280,000+ in media spend and 3,500+ qualified leads to setting up GA4 dashboards, UTM structures, HubSpot automation, and ABM programs, I focus on measurable outcomes and scalable systems—while recruiting, training, and leading teams.
