About
I’m a content marketing and SEO strategist with nearly a decade of experience helping brands turn their expertise into visibility, trust, and meaningful growth. Not just more traffic, but the kind that actually drives results. Originally from California and now based in Barcelona, I’ve worked with international brands across health & wellness, fintech, e-commerce, and luxury travel. From enterprise companies to early-stage startups, I partner with teams that care deeply about what they’re building and want their content to reflect that level of quality. My role goes beyond writing or keyword optimization. I act as a strategic partner, shaping content direction, uncovering growth opportunities, and building systems that support long-term, scalable success. I’m detail-oriented, but always with the bigger picture in mind. Think of me as the person who ensures your brand isn’t just present online, but impossible to overlook. How I support teams: • Content strategy aligned with real business goals, not just keywords • SEO and on-page optimization built for sustainable, compounding growth • AI search optimization for visibility in AI Overviews and generative search • Long-form content that builds authority, trust, and conversion • Content audits that unlock hidden growth opportunities • Editorial systems that streamline and scale content operations Interested in working together?
