Who I Am

GROWTH MARKETER
FOR CONSUMER BRANDS

I'm a performance-driven digital marketer with 2.5 years of hands-on experience inside fast-growing franchise brands. My work spans paid media, organic content strategy, lead generation systems, and conversion optimization.

Where most marketers focus on impressions or engagement, I build systems that tie directly to customer acquisition and revenue growth. Whether it's a paid funnel, a viral Reel, or a catering lead system — everything I do is built to scale.

My experience inside multi-location restaurant brands means I understand the operational reality of marketing at scale — not just the theory.
