I help founders and agencies ship web projects on time, without stress or rework.
I’m a Technical Project Manager with 10+ years of experience in web development and 5+ years leading and managing digital projects end-to-end. I take pride in being a Project "Translator", being the bridge between the client and the creative team. I specialize in stepping into web projects that are behind, disorganized, or stuck and bringing clarity, structure, and momentum so they actually launch.
* I don't do the work; I manage the work. *
That means:
- Clarifying scope and priorities
- Coordinating designers and developers
- Managing timelines and deliverables
- Setting Expectations
- Reducing rework and miscommunication
- Keeping stakeholders aligned and informed
My background as a former developer allows me to communicate fluently with technical teams while protecting non-technical founders from unnecessary complexity.
What I typically help with:
- Rescuing delayed or chaotic website projects
- Acting as a part-time Technical PM on retainer
- Managing WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, and custom web builds
- Overseeing agencies, freelancers, and internal teams
- Creating simple, repeatable workflows that stick
I’m PMP-certified and comfortable stepping into existing tools and processes or improving them if needed.
If your project feels heavier than it should, or you’re tired of being the one chasing updates, I can help stabilize delivery and get things moving again.

Hey there! I'm Shanece Grant, a Marketing Specialist on a mission to captivate and inspire audiences through compelling content. With over 8 years of experience as a Certified Freelance Writer, Editor, and Social Media Manager, I've mastered the art of crafting engaging website content, captivating copies, gripping blogs, intriguing stories, shareable social media posts, and thought-provoking articles.
I'm not your typical marketer—I'm a history and plant enthusiast with an insatiable curiosity for languages. Besides being fluent in English, I've actively immersed myself in the worlds of French and Spanish, and I'm currently diving headfirst into the complexities of the German language. This passion for languages fuels my creativity and enables me to bring a unique perspective to every project I tackle.
When it comes to content creation, I'm a wizard of words, transforming ideas into compelling narratives that leave a lasting impact. I'm an expert in conducting thorough research, ensuring the accuracy and credibility of every piece I produce. With an eagle eye for grammar and an obsession for impeccable writing, I refine and polish my work until it shines.
My skill set extends beyond the realm of content creation. I'm well-versed in managing Google Ads campaigns, leveraging SEO strategies to boost visibility, and skillfully handling social media accounts to drive engagement. I'm no stranger to tools like Google Search Console, SEMrush, and project management platforms such as Notion, Monday.com, and Asana, which help me stay organized and ensure seamless execution of projects.
Throughout my professional journey, I've honed my marketing prowess in various roles. Currently, I'm the Head of Marketing at Gray Group International, where I orchestrate impactful campaigns that leave a mark. Prior to this, I served as a Growth Hacker and SEO specialist within the same organization, harnessing data-driven insights to achieve outstanding results. Additionally, my experience includes crafting persuasive copy, managing social media ads, and creating compelling internal and external communications that resonate with diverse audiences.
While I thrive in the corporate world, my true passion lies in the freedom and creativity of freelance writing. For over a decade, I've immersed myself in the world of creativity, providing exceptional writing services across a broad spectrum—from crafting captivating stories to ghostwriting, business writing, and academic prowess.
Beyond my professional accomplishments, I've had the privilege of interning with Live Well Jamaica, where I dabbled in journalism, wrote compelling articles, mastered email marketing, created catchy radio jingles, produced radio shows, and even honed my public speaking and social media management skills.
I'm a firm believer in continuous growth and learning. I hold a recent SEO Certification from Hubspot Academy, adding another feather to my cap of expertise. With every new project, I push myself to deliver exceptional results, constantly raising the bar and exceeding expectations.
When I'm not weaving words or conquering marketing challenges, you might find me exploring historical sites, immersing myself in different cultures, or losing track of time with a captivating book. I bring this zest for life, passion for storytelling, and insatiable hunger for knowledge to every project I embark on.
If you're seeking a Marketing Specialist who can infuse your brand with a touch of magic, look no further. Together, let's create captivating campaigns that inspire, engage, and leave a lasting impression.
