Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario
I build marketing systems that actually drive revenue.
13+ years across paid media, SEO, analytics, and marketing automation. I've run campaigns for Coinbase Canada and Ecobee, built a marketing department from scratch at a manufacturing company, and now I'm connecting marketing strategy to AI tools that scale it.

What sets me apart
Marketing meets AI automation
I don't just run campaigns — I build systems that connect marketing strategy to the tools that actually scale it. Here's what that looks like in practice.
AI Content Pipelines
Built end-to-end workflows using OpenAI and Anthropic APIs that go from brief to finished video ad — automated script writing, voiceover, image generation, and assembly.
Automated SEO Monitoring
Set up n8n workflows that track rankings, flag drops, and generate content briefs based on real search data — no manual spreadsheet work.
YouTube Channel (~82K subs)
Built an AI-focused YouTube channel as proof of concept for content automation at scale — every video produced through AI pipelines I designed.
