Origin

California to Australia

Born and raised in California, I moved to Australia to pursue an education and a professional career. At twenty-two I’d finished a Master of Project Management and from there, made a point of getting genuinely good at every industry I stepped into.

02
Industries

A working portfolio

I’ve managed residential construction projects. I’ve helped launch an online clothing company. I’ve worked cross-divisionally as the senior SEO & website manager for a swimwear brand. These days, I run some of Australia’s largest e-commerce SEO campaigns.

Get the brief right, find the system the work actually needs, and build it properly.

03
Method

Working across cultures

Having worked with clients from all over the world, I’d attribute most of what’s worked to three things: acute insight, common sense, and effective communication.

04
Approach

Translating the complex

With a background in project management and a real passion for marketing and the digital world, my expertise sits in a specific gap. Taking complex theories and translating them into executable ideas a small team can actually run with.

From start-up entrepreneur to technical SEO and marketing wiz, I’ve curated a deliberate skill set: digital marketing, business development, logistics & procurement, stakeholder communication, and a keen interest in automation.

03 — Disciplines

The curated skill set.

Twelve practices
A-01

Digital Marketing

Strategy, channels, and the funnel from awareness through retention.

A-02

Technical SEO

Crawl, index, render. The unsexy half of search — usually the half that’s broken.

A-03

E-Comm SEO

Catalogue architecture, faceted nav, schema, and category-page craft.

A-04

Enterprise SEO

Running search at scale for some of Australia’s largest e-commerce sites.

B-01

Project Management

A Master’s worth of foundation. The reason projects actually ship.

B-02

Business Development

Pipeline, partnerships, and turning conversations into engagements.

B-03

Stakeholder Comms

The unglamorous skill that makes every other one possible.

B-04

Logistics & Procurement

A surprisingly useful background when running e-commerce campaigns.

C-01

Website Development

Shopify, WordPress, custom. The build half of the practice.

C-02

Content Strategy

What to write, when, where it lives, and what it’s meant to do.

C-03

Data & Analytics

GA4, Search Console, dashboards that actually get read.

C-04

Automation

A keen interest. Less spreadsheet labour, more thinking time.
