Creative & production
My role here is mainly direction. I write the brief and the UGC scripts, set the angle and the shot list, and direct photographers, videographers, editors and designers so the asset is built for the placement it will run in.
Performance marketer., media buyer., campaign architect., creative strategist.
I plan, produce and scale paid campaigns across Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn and programmatic, and I engineer the whole conversion journey behind them, from the first three seconds of a hook to the closed deal in the CRM.

02About

Over the years I’ve worked with brands across e-commerce, real estate, higher education, SaaS and service businesses, from single-founder stores to full media productions for Fortune 500 clients, and managed USD 4.5M in ad spend across Meta, TikTok, Google and programmatic.
I scale brands through a full-stack performance approach. I don’t just manage ad spend; I engineer the entire conversion journey, from the creative that earns attention to the CRM stage where a lead becomes revenue.
Media buying is a commodity. Creative is the variable of success.
So I use data to inform creative strategy, and creative to drive down acquisition costs. Deep technical control of Meta, TikTok and Google Ads, combined with hands-on creative direction, is what turns attention into measurable revenue.
Five outcomes I am hired for, and the ones every engagement is measured against.
Generate sales-qualified leads at a lower cost
Scale e-commerce revenue profitably
Lift conversion rates with data-driven insight
Build high-performing, full-funnel marketing systems
Direct creative, photography and video that stops the scroll
03Expertise
Creative, media, measurement and retention are run as one system, because a cheap click is worthless if the page, the follow-up or the tracking lets it go.

07Process
Every engagement runs the same way, whether it is a retained media account, a creative sprint or a full production. You see the numbers at each step.
Step 01
Thirty minutes on your goals, your current spend and what is or is not working. You leave with a clear view of what I would change first, whether or not we work together.
Step 02
I go through the ad accounts, the tracking and the funnel behind them, then come back with a plan: what to fix, what to test first and what the budget should look like.
Step 03
Creative direction, campaign structure, conversion tracking and landing pages, built and live inside the first two weeks rather than after a month of decks.
Step 04
Weekly optimisation against cost per lead or ROAS, and reporting that ties spend to pipeline and revenue instead of stopping at clicks.
