What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my SEO expertise in a collaborative environment, focusing on innovative strategies that drive growth and enhance brand visibility.

I am a co-founder and director at SAP Nutrition Ltd, where I have played a pivotal role in scaling our flagship product, Vyvamind, to $3.5M in revenue within a year. My journey in SEO began with a degree in English, leading me to explore the dynamic world of digital marketing. I have successfully built and managed an affiliate program from the ground up, which has become our primary revenue channel. My leadership extends to overseeing a talented remote team, ensuring that our content and marketing strategies align with our brand goals.

Prior to my current role, I served as an SEO Manager at ProWritingAid, where I led a full-site recovery after a major Google algorithm update. My strategic changes resulted in surpassing £100K in monthly organic revenue for the first time. I have a proven track record in content management, SEO strategy, and affiliate marketing, consistently driving significant revenue growth through innovative approaches and data-driven decisions.
