When marketing spend isn't turning into pipeline, I find out why and fix it.

I build teams, systems, and pipeline engines that help companies scale through rapid change. I lead demand generation and paid media teams that connect every channel, dollar, and data point to revenue.

What I Do

Turn spend into pipeline.

I restructure channels and measurement so budget follows what drives opportunities, not clicks.

Get your brand found in AI search.

I build GEO and AEO strategies that put your company in the answers buyers see in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.

Give Sales better signals.

I turn digital intent into prioritized accounts and leads Sales can act on.

Build teams that deliver.

I hire, coach, and develop marketers who own their results.

Where I've built it

Fivetran · Lumen

Fivetran

I built and led the demand engine during a period when Fivetran scaled from ~$300M to nearly $500M ARR and was recognized by Inc. as one of America's fastest-growing private companies. My team executed across paid media, SEO/AEO/GEO, webinars, content syndication, and lifecycle programs — driving up to 50% of inbound pipeline from technical buyers evaluating modern data stack infrastructure.

Lumen Technologies

I spent a decade leading digital demand generation through a full company rebrand and multiple GTM pivots. I led teams of up to 18 people, including a shared services paid media, ABM, and lifecycle team, and a demand center that used machine learning to turn digital signals into actionable intelligence for Sales to prioritize outreach.

Let's be real — do you really want autonomous AI agents fully powering your demand generation program? Human decision making and oversight is still critical, as well as a deep understanding of the marketing technology that powers demand generation. So, while I haven't yet built a full demand engine run by AI agents, I've built the pieces. Unified buyer signals, predictive scoring that gave sellers a next best action, personalized advertising and digital journeys, cleaner conversion signals that powered Google's AI bidding and budgeting, and agents that monitored performance and automated manual work; all empowering your demand generation team to work smarter and faster.
