I've worked across 100+ marketing technologies, and I'm a rockstar in HubSpot, WordPress, Google Analytics, Looker Studio, and Zapier. I am adept at building custom integrations, understanding APIs, automating workflows, and analyzing data to drive strategic decision-making. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create seamless customer experiences and achieve business growth. In addition to revenue technology, I have working knowledge in accounting and finance operations by overseeing day-to-day operations of bookkeeping, accounts receivable, and financial reporting.
