SEO Director & Marketing Professional Seeking New Challenges

As an experienced SEO Director with a proven track record of delivering measurable results, I am passionate about driving growth and helping companies succeed in the online space. With 13+ years of experience in the industry, I have developed a deep understanding of SEO, SEM, PPC, content marketing, and all things inbound marketing.

Passionate About Growth

I’ve always believed in improving oneself on a daily basis. Life is about growth. If we’re not growing, we’re not able to serve our purpose. I also enjoy being able to help others grow. I feel this is one of life’s greatest gifts!

Driven, Motivated, & Determined

Friends and colleagues who have known me for an extended amount of time constantly tell me I am one of the most driven people they have ever met! I push through tough challenges and celebrate accomplishments.

Values of Honesty & Integrity

I am one of the most honest people you will ever meet. I know that sometimes the truth stings a little, but I would rather tell the truth and not compromise my integrity. Tell the truth, even if your voice shakes!

Great Sense Of Humor

Anyone who has worked with me will quickly tell you I love to joke and have a good time…just not at the expense of missing a goal.  Keeping things lighthearted increases productivity and contributes to a great work environment.
