🖥️ How I Can Help
Throughout my career I’ve worked with founders, CEOs, and small teams market and promote their products, services, & brands in order to increase revenue.
I’ve mainly worked with two kinds of companies: venture backed startups (internally and as an external advisor) and SMBs (typically the $1-5 million revenue range.)
With a firm understanding of a company’s goals, customers, and products, I excel at creating campaigns that get results.

📘 What I’m Reading & Listening To
I’m an avid reader & love podcasts.
In addition to 100 physical books in my library at home, I have a growing collection of 200-300 books on my phone and am always in the process of reading 4-5 at any given time.
I tend to do deep dives on topics and will read 3-4 books and consume podcasts on topics I’m interested in deeply understanding. I’ve found this to be a great way to build knowledge and bring a variety of ideas and perspectives to my work.
Here’s are a few books (of many) that influence the way I think and work.
I’ve taken lessons from each of these authors and often revisit key ideas and sections I’ve highlighted to make sure I absorb something useful from each of them.
🌮 When Not Working
- I hunt, hike, camp, and explore B.C and Alberta
- I hunt deer, elk, and moose for clean food and for the hard work, adventure, & camaraderie
- I take a lot of photos of my adventures, most of which I never share
- I love seeing beasts in the wild 🦌
