Hire the Best Consultants in Kalispell, MT

I'm a digital marketer with 15 years of experience. I help brands reach clients and build trust while teducing cost per acquisition. I help people fall in love with the brands, products, and services that solve their problems—even problems they didn’t know they had. While I can provide strategy in all areas of digital marketing, I have extensive experience in technical marketing (such as onsite SEO and building tracking architectures with Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager) and paid media, specifically Google Ads. I've worked in both the B2B and B2C spaces across a variety of industries—SaaS, entertainment, medical, legal, and finance—helping companies of all sizes from disruptive startups to international brands. If we were creating a greatest hits album based on my career the tracks include: 1. Drop That CPA! I've helped clients lower their cost per acquisition by up to 50%. 2. There’s No Business like Show Business I'm honored to have had the opportunity to strategize marketing plans for award-winning documentaries, including one screened at the White House, and star-studded films featuring Simon Pegg, Robin Williams, Giancarlo Esposito, and Billy Bob Thornton. 3. Power of the Pen (Errr, Keyboard?) My guest posts and articles have been published on a variety of high-traffic sites, including Huffington Post and bobvila.com. I also edited and contributed to a best-selling book on social media marketing. 4. Growth Is the Answer I’ve helped businesses expand into new markets at home and abroad. For instance, I spearheaded the internal communication efforts for a company launching branches in New Zealand and South Africa simultaneously. 5. Teamwork Makes the Dream Work Building teams while creating (or maintaining) a strong sense of culture is something I’ve done in and out of the office. I’ve had the opportunity to build a marketing department from the ground up as well as step in and lead existing teams, including one with over 30 people. Outside of the office, I founded the Cincinnati Content Professionals group and co-organized the Cincinnati Digital Marketing Meetup, two in-person networking groups that grew to hundreds of members. However, at the end of the day, what makes me good at my job is that I know marketing is about people—entertaining them, educating them, and empathizing with them. I also hold certificates in Google Ads, Google Analytics (including GA4), inbound marketing (HubSpot), Microsoft Ads, Meta (Facebook) media planning, Scrum, and data science (Cornell).

I have incredibly broad experience, including - digital, content, and brand marketing management and strategy - Integrator/COO/Team Management - social media strategy and management -agency ownership and operations management - remote team management - hiring and candidate vetting - course and curriculum development (instructional design) - project management - copywriting - community management I have managed virtual teams of more than ten to twenty at a time, and know what it takes to keep clients happy and team members motivated to do their best work consistently.

I work with adults who want to understand their patterns, build emotional intelligence, and make clearer decisions across relationships, career direction, productivity, and life transitions. People often come to this work because something feels stuck or unsettled. Dating or isn’t working the way they want. A relationship or marriage is at a crossroads. A career decision or transition feels heavy or obscure. Productivity and follow-through are inconsistent. While the surface issue varies, the underlying work is the same: understanding how internal patterns and needs shape direction, communication, boundaries, and decision-making. My work is attachment-informed, but not limited to romantic attachment. I look at how people become attached to familiar patterns, coping strategies, insecurities, and conditioned ways of responding. What once helped you adapt or stay safe can later become the very thing that keeps you stuck. These attachments show up across family dynamics, work environments, relationships, and decision-making. The focus is not labels or diagnoses, but increasing clarity, flexibility, and skill so new choices, growth, and connection become possible. At the core of my work, I act as a thinking and communication partner. We engage in focused conversations and dialogue that surface what is already present but often obscured by noise, habit, or self-doubt. I don’t give answers or tell you what to do. Instead, I ask clear, incisive questions, provide tactical workflows and offer grounded reflections that help you reach clarity, make decisions, and move forward with greater confidence and self-trust. I primarily support three types of clients: Personal development and productivity Clients who want clearer boundaries, stronger self-trust, better communication, and more consistent follow-through. This often includes productivity challenges, emotional regulation, and learning how to respond rather than react in everyday life, work dynamics, friendships, and family relationships. Men navigating modern dating Men who feel stuck, confused, or frustrated in today’s dating landscape. This work often includes identifying repeating relational patterns, building emotional intelligence, practicing real conversations, and adapting to changing social norms without scripts, shame, or performance. Life transitions, career direction, and decision-making Clients who are at a moment of inflection and need help thinking clearly. This can include career confusion, role changes, burnout, relocation, identity shifts, or major life decisions where there is no obvious right answer. We focus on understanding internal conflict, clarifying values and needs, and making grounded decisions without avoidance, overthinking, or outsourcing authority. Please note: I don’t provide couples therapy. However, partners may work with me individually using the same framework to support shared language, insight, and long-term relational understanding. Working style and fit My style is direct, structured, and active. I ask honest, challenging questions, name patterns I see, and offer clear feedback. This is not a passive or purely supportive container. Think coach-on-the-field rather than full-time cheerleader. Sessions are practical and focused on real-world application, not diagnosis or emotional processing for its own sake. We’re likely a good fit if you: • are open to respectful challenge • want accountability, not just insight • can reflect on feedback without becoming defensive • are willing to do light reflection or practice between sessions • prefer clarity and progress over comfort Important note I’m not a fit for crisis situations, active trauma processing, domestic violence, or PTSD-focused work. If you’re in an unsafe situation or need trauma-specific or clinical support, working with a licensed mental health professional is important. I offer short-term, clearly defined sessions and workshops designed to start and end cleanly. I also offer an optional 20-minute fit consultation for questions, clarity, and mutual assessment of fit.
