🚀 18+ years in advertising, including ad agency experience 🎬 Methodical creative strategy + award-winning editors and designers 🎯 Agency-level quality, without the juniors or cookie-cutter playbook A lot of clients come to me after disappointing agency experiences - slow communication, generic strategy, too many handoffs, and more. That's not how I work. My past clients say that I deliver senior-level strategy and funnels, plus high-end creative, building creative strategically rather than churning out AI-heavy variations with no direction. I have helped build and manage campaigns for brands spending up to $10K/day on ads, across both ecommerce and lead generation. Whether you are trying to scale, improve efficiency, or fix an account that feels stuck, I focus on building a plan that is clear, custom, and grounded in what actually drives performance. What I do best: ✅ Meta Ads / Facebook Ads management ✅ Instagram ads strategy ✅ Paid social creative strategy ✅ Ad production with award-winning editors and designers ✅ Conversion-focused copywriting ✅ Ecommerce growth and local lead gen ✅ Google Ads How I work: 1) Creative-led testing I build and test creative based on angles, hooks, offers, and formats that fit how Meta works today, so we can find what scales instead of guessing. 2) Full-funnel thinking Ads do not work in isolation. Creative, audience, messaging, landing page, and offer all need to align. 3) Smart volume, not junk volume I can support serious creative output when needed, but the goal is not to flood the account with mediocre assets. The goal is better testing, faster learning, and stronger performance. 4) Senior strategy, start to finish No bloated process, no junior handoffs, no one-size-fits-all approach. Just experienced strategy, thoughtful execution, and clear communication. If you want a freelancer with the strategic depth of an agency, but more care, more flexibility, and better creative focus, we should talk.

Most marketing budgets bleed money. I find where and fix it. At a $700M company, I cut PPC spend 60% while boosting results 70%. For a business coach, I delivered 13.5X ROAS and $57K in 60 days. For a landscaper, 15X returns that I've now replicated in multiple cities. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂: I don't just build campaigns, I solve problems. If your marketing budget is bleeding money, your ads aren't converting, or you can't figure out what's working and why, I find the answer and fix it. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗱𝗼: I handle the full picture from strategy to execution and optimization. You're not hiring someone to hand you a deck and disappear. I'm the person who builds it, runs it, tracks it, and makes it better. 𝗕𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 - 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗜 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹: This is where 20 years of experience pays off. As VP of Marketing, I managed a $1.5M annual budget and became known for finding waste and reallocating it to what actually drives results. I reduced costs by right-aligning vendors with corporate goals, cutting unnecessary spending while improving performance across the board. Whether you're spending $3K or $300K monthly, I know how to make every dollar work harder. I audit what you're doing, identify what's broken or bleeding money, and build a plan that's both profitable and sustainable. 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺-𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴: I'm a big-picture thinker who loves digging into complex marketing problems. At that $700M financial institution, I led the digital transformation strategy shifting customers from expensive traditional channels to digital while growing applications 65% over three years. That required understanding customer behavior, coordinating cross-functional teams, managing vendor relationships, and executing campaigns that moved the needle on corporate goals. I bring that same strategic approach to growing businesses: I look at your entire funnel, identify the bottlenecks, and create solutions that actually work in the real world. 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀: I specialize in Google Search and Facebook lead generation campaigns, but here's the difference: I don't just set up ads and hope for the best. I start with a thorough onboarding and audit process to understand your business, your customers, and what's already working (or not). Then I build campaigns with strategic testing built in--like the three-offer A/B test that identified the winning message for my home healthcare client, or the "build backwards" video funnel approach that delivered 13.5X ROAS for a business coach. Every campaign is backed by data, optimized continuously, and built to scale. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗶𝗻: Google Search & Facebook lead generation campaigns Marketing audits and budget optimization Full-funnel growth (ads → landing pages → email → sales) Marketing operations and campaign management Vendor management and team coordination A/B testing and conversion optimization Market research and customer persona development 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀: → 9.3X ROAS for home healthcare provider ($2,695 spend → 59 qualified leads, 10 new clients) → 13.5X ROAS for B2B coach ($4,098 spend → $57,500 in sales, 42% landing page conversion) → 15X ROAS for landscaping company ($2,917 spend → 100 qualified leads at $29 each) → 65% growth in digital applications over 3 years while managing $1.5M corporate budget → 60% reduction in PPC costs with 70% improvement in goal completion rates → 60% increase in cross-sell revenue in one year with consistent 35%+ email open rates 𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵: Service-based businesses (B2B or B2C) spending $3K-$50K/month on marketing. You're past the startup phase, making sales, and ready to scale without the guesswork. You value clear communication, honest feedback, and someone who won't waste your time or money. 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝗜 𝘂𝘀𝗲: HighLevel, Google Ads, Facebook Ads Manager, Google Analytics, email platforms, CRM systems, marketing automation tools...whatever gets the job done efficiently. 𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱, 𝗹𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸. 𝗠𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜'𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲.
