About

Experienced marketer with a passion for creating engaging content that drives results. I have a background in digital marketing and a talent for writing and optimizing content. When I'm not working, you can find me spending time with my kid or baking some pizzas in my backyard. As Head of Podcast at Girdley Media, I led podcast production, managed content, and drove audience growth by 25% through marketing strategies; as the Head of Marketing at Slidebean, I led growth marketing initiatives, significantly boosting YouTube subscribers and website traffic. I managed Slidebean's social media and paid digital media campaigns and all the SEO and website optimization efforts, achieving remarkable engagement growth.
