What I Do

Demand Generation

Drive demand with webinars and digital events that people actually watch. It’s all about turning curiosity into conversations, and conversations into pipeline.

Content Marketing

Turn ideas into stories people actually want to click, then share. From case studies that give buyers FOMO, to resources that feel like treasure maps.

Brand Marketing

Buzz beyond your own channel. Team up with influencers who that can't be ignored and send direct mail that actually gets opened (and remembered).

Paid Acquisition

Scale customer acquisition through data-driven LinkedIn ad campaigns that convert high-intent audiences into qualified leads.

FAQ

What exactly do you do as a Growth Marketing Manager?

In short, I help companies grow by blending creative storytelling with data-driven strategy. That means running demand generation campaigns, organic and paid marketing, SEO, social media, influencer programs, direct mail, events - you name it - all tied back to measurable impact on pipeline and revenue.

What makes your approach to marketing different?

I don’t just focus on getting clicks or followers, I care about what happens next. My goal is to create campaigns that don’t just look good, but bring in qualified leads, build real relationships, and convert curiosity into loyal customers.

Can you share some examples of your work?

Sure! I’ve launched webinars that doubled attendee numbers, built SEO strategies that boosted organic traffic, partnered with influencers to reach new audiences, and created direct mail campaigns that stood out in a digital-first world. (Check out my portfolio page for details!)

How do you measure success?

Everything ties back to metrics that matter: pipeline created, revenue influenced, customer acquisition cost, ROI on campaigns, engagement rates, and organic traffic growth. I love experimenting, but always with an eye on what moves the business forward.

What industries do you have experience in?

My core background is in early stage (Series A-C) B2B SaaS and tech startups, but the frameworks and creative thinking I use can translate across industries, especially where storytelling and data meet.
