About

I'm a digital experience and marketing professional with a background in B2B, construction, industrial, ecommerce, and service-based businesses. Most of my work has centered on helping companies make their websites, CRM systems, content, campaigns, and reporting work together in a clearer, more useful way.

Outside of work, I'm a father, reader, golfer, and lifter. I'm drawn to practical ideas, honest communication, and good design.
