• Optimize for Growth: Build, run, and scale data-driven experiments across channels. Use A/B testing, creative optimization, and funnel analysis to increase conversion rates and lower CAC.
• Deep Dive into Data: Track and analyze performance metrics across campaigns. Translate insights into clear actions, and double down on what's working while quickly cutting what's not.
• Enable Sales Through Pipeline: Partner closely with sales to align paid efforts with pipeline goals. Ensure campaigns generate the right quality and volume of leads to accelerate deals.
• Drive Launch Campaigns: Lead performance strategy for new product, feature, or market launches. Ensure paid programs are tightly aligned with GTM priorities and customer segments.
• Measure What Matters: Define, monitor, and report on KPIs that matter—CAC, LTV, ROI, pipeline contribution. Build dashboards that keep leadership and GTM teams aligned.
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work with product, sales, and leadership to ensure demand generation efforts support broader company objectives and revenue targets.
• Scale Demand: Partner with founders and GTM teams to fuel top-of-funnel growth. Craft campaigns that cut through noise, reach the right buyers, and maximize return on spend.

• Cross-functional collaborator who partners with sales, product, and leadership to align marketing programs with company goals.
• Clear, confident communicator who can translate performance insights into simple narratives that drive decisions and secure buy-in.
