About
I'm a senior performance marketing manager with 8+ years of experience building and scaling paid media systems across e-commerce, lead generation, and subscription businesses. I've managed budgets from $30K to $500K+ monthly across Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, and Meta Ads — delivering results like 35% YoY revenue growth at Ned's Home on $500K+ in ad spend, 5x revenue growth at LEDMyplace, and a Canada market launch that generated $1M+ CAD in its first year. Beyond campaign management, I build the infrastructure that makes growth sustainable — full-funnel tracking via GTM and GA4, attribution modeling, CRO testing frameworks, and performance dashboards that drive real decisions. I've also led cross-functional teams and managed HubSpot CRM architecture, making me effective across the full marketing stack. I work best with ambitious teams that want someone who takes ownership of outcomes, not just tasks.
