I worked at Facebook for a year, and I am a paid media consultant who helps businesses optimize their Shopify e-commerce revenue and lead generation efforts with Facebook Advertising, Pay-Per-Click Advertising (PPC) and Social Media Marketing. I have deep experience with Facebook Ads Manager and Instagram Ads, experience with Google Ads, Twitter Ads and TikTok Ads, as well as a broad organic social media content development and strategy background, and deep experience with generative AI for content creation. In the past, I’ve run 10-12x ROAS Facebook and Instagram advertising campaigns for global sports brands (I led social media for the Boston Celtics and UFC) and have run digital ad campaigns for clients across multiple industries like live event tickets (hockey tournaments, conventions, etc.), DTC/e-commerce, luxury soap, premium pet food (Purina) and pet products, baby furniture, women’s designer clothing, book releases, real estate, designer chocolate, and more. I also have a background in lead generation campaigns and helping marketers understand what their cost per lead should look like on Facebook and Instagram. My work in-house at Facebook provided me with insider insight into effective ads strategies on the platform. I’ve also worked in the paid media space for a pharmaceutical company and the retail media space for Fortune 500 CPGs. I’ve managed monthly budgets of up to $1 million on Facebook, and I can work with any business, including start-ups, wedding photographers, real estate agents, small businesses, restaurants, and e-commerce/Shopify stores, as well as local services businesses (cleaning companies, etc.) who need help with lead generation. Whether you need help with Facebook pixel installation, organizing Facebook Business Manager, lead gen and landing page optimization, or lookalikes and audience retargeting, I can help optimize your ad spend and enhance your tactics. If you just need an extra set of eyes on your account for some pointers, or you need a full-on account audit, I’m your guy. I can also help with Wordpress, Shopify and GoHighLevel integrations with your Meta Ads. I have deep experience with event marketing through Facebook Ads, including professional sports ticket sales, networking, conferences and conventions marketing via Eventbrite, and webinar marketing via Zoom and other platforms. I manage Meta Ads for multiple clients and can manage yours as well. I can also help you design ad creative with generative AI tools for rapid creative testing and iteration, including Gemini, NanoBanana, Claude and more. If you need help in these areas of your social media marketing, Facebook Ads or Instagram marketing, let’s chat.

I take the time to get to know my clients and your goals before we decide together on which path forward makes the most sense for you and your goals.

I specialize in operations oversight and systems optimization for growing businesses that are ready to scale but feel operational strain behind the scenes. With over 20 years of executive-level experience leading departments and overseeing operations in Corporate America and 3+ years specializing in HighLevel (GoHighLevel) systems architecture, I assess, analyze, and restructure business operations to eliminate gaps, increase efficiency, and improve execution. If your workflows feel scattered, your team lacks clarity, or your CRM isn’t producing measurable results, I help you identify why and fix it. Core Areas of Expertise Operations & Systems Audits Comprehensive assessments to identify breakdowns in workflow, role clarity, automation gaps, and execution bottlenecks. CRM Architecture & Optimization (HighLevel Specialist) Agency and sub-account structuring, pipeline design, automation workflows, funnel builds, integrations, and scalability planning. Process Improvement & Documentation SOP creation, workflow mapping, task breakdown structures, and operational playbooks designed for delegation and scale. Team Oversight & Quality Control Task management frameworks, accountability systems, performance structure, and execution supervision. Reporting & Operational Visibility Dashboard setup, KPI tracking, executive summaries, and performance analysis to support data-driven decisions. What Makes Me Different Strategic, Not Task-Based I don’t just “complete assignments.” I evaluate how everything connects and improve the system as a whole. Gap Identification Expert Most businesses don’t struggle because of effort. They struggle because of structural blind spots. I uncover them. Execution-Focused Recommendations are practical, prioritized, and built for real implementation, not theory. High-Level Thinking with Hands-On Capability I can design strategy and step in to build, document, or supervise execution when needed. If you're looking for someone to simply input data, I may not be the best fit. If you're looking for someone to analyze your operations, streamline your systems, and help you scale with structure and clarity, let’s connect. I take on a limited number of projects to ensure depth, quality, and measurable results.
