I’m an experienced B2B and B2C sales, lead generation, appointment setting, telemarketing, marketing, branding, and advertising professional who genuinely loves making calls and connecting with people.
I was trained in the early late 2000 to “smile and dial,” and I still believe that great phone skills, persistence, active listening, and genuine conversations can make a huge difference in sales.
I can help with inbound and outbound calling, cold calling, warm leads, lead qualification, lead nurturing, follow-ups, customer service, sales development, prospecting, and appointment setting.
My background includes B2B/B2C sales, advertising sales, marketing and branding, lead generation, spokes modeling, customer outreach, and traditional telemarketing. I’m comfortable speaking with business owners, decision-makers, consumers, and prospects at all stages of the sales funnel.
My goal is simple: connect with the right people, create meaningful conversations, qualify opportunities, and turn prospects into customers or booked appointments.
I’m self-employed in several areas and always learning, adapting, and expanding my experience. If you need someone who is personable, persistent, professional, and genuinely enjoys picking up the phone — let’s talk!

If you're running a great local business but struggling to get seen online, that's where I come in.
I help local businesses improve their visibility online, with a strong focus on local SEO and Google Business Profile. That can mean improving how you're showing up in local searches, strengthening your profile, building citations, managing reviews, creating relevant content, or figuring out why your business isn't showing up where it should.
Here are some of the ways I can help:
✓ Google Business Profile optimization and ongoing management
✓ Local SEO and search visibility
✓ Local citations and business listings
✓ Review and reputation management
✓ Local content strategy
✓ Competitor and ranking research
✓ Google Business Profile troubleshooting and compliance
✓ Monthly reporting with clear, useful takeaways
I work primarily with local and service-based businesses, so I understand how important it is to be visible in the areas you actually serve. Ranking well somewhere that doesn't bring you customers isn't particularly helpful.
I also don't believe every business needs the exact same SEO checklist. I look at where your business stands now, what's working, where you're losing visibility, and what actually makes sense to work on next.
Sometimes that's optimizing an underperforming Google Business Profile. Sometimes it's strengthening your presence outside of Google. And sometimes it's digging into rankings and competitors to figure out why you're being outranked in the first place.
My goal is pretty simple: help more of the right people find your business online. Good businesses deserve to be found. Let's make sure yours is.
