Find out moreFor a large part of my career I worked in agencies. I started as a print designer in an ad agency and as the web entered its infancy in late 1990’s I became a web designer. This fast transitioned into a fascination with ‘ranking’ in search engines, like Altavista 🙂 That was my start in digital marketing, as we know it today.
Over the course of my 25 year career I have had a wide range of experience working on digital and growth marketing strategies, along with hands on tactical channel management as well. My most notable level of experience is within search marketing, both organic and paid, where I have consulted with clients from a variety of sectors and industries.
I am entrepreneurial at heart and have bought, built and sold a number of companies, including a a niche, high-end children’s furniture and accessories e-commerce business. I have also experience with intrapreneurship, founding and heading up a successful digital and growth marketing business unit in a prominent agency.
I aim to always bring this entrepreneurial spirit and learnings to every client I partner with.
