Hi, I’m Delano. Strategy is my natural habitat. I’m an INTJ personality type and a late-diagnosed autistic entrepreneur, which in practical terms means two things: I think in systems and I obsess over patterns in data. In digital marketing, that combination turns out to be extremely useful. I have over a decade of experience working as a Digital Marketing Manager and strategist, helping companies translate business goals into measurable digital systems. My work typically sits at the intersection of marketing strategy, digital operations, and performance marketing. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Media, Communications & History, an Honours Degree in History, and a Postgraduate Diploma in Information Studies, and I’m currently completing a Master’s in Social Science. Research and structured thinking heavily influence how I approach marketing problems. Over the years I’ve worked both inside companies and as a freelance consultant, managing campaigns, teams, and vendors across industries such as hospitality, travel, ecommerce, education, and technology. My core areas of expertise include: • Digital Marketing Strategy – Mapping customer journeys and aligning channels to measurable outcomes • Performance Marketing – Google Ads, Meta Ads, paid social campaigns, and ROI-driven media buying • SEO & Content Strategy – Building content ecosystems that satisfy both search engines and actual humans • Data Analytics – Turning campaign data into decisions rather than vanity metrics • Digital Operations – Building systems that make marketing repeatable and scalable • AI-Assisted Marketing Systems – Using gen AI and automation tools to accelerate research, content production, campaign testing, and marketing operations while maintaining human strategic oversight. My philosophy is simple: marketing should not feel like guessing. If you understand the audience, structure the funnel correctly, and measure everything, results stop being mysterious and start becoming predictable. I enjoy working with companies that want more than random tactics. If you’re looking for someone who can design the strategy, execute the campaigns, and interpret the data, we’ll get along well. If not, I will probably still run an experiment just to see what happens.
