From the Marine Corpsto programmatic SEO & AI growth systems.

A decade of building organic-growth pipelines for health, finance, and SaaS brands — and now figuring out how to win in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.

// 01 — The journey

I'm an organic-growth strategist.

It started in 2014, after I completed my enlistment in the United States Marine Corps. I discovered drop-shipping, affiliate marketing, and the digital-nomad lifestyle, which led me around the world meeting talented entrepreneurs and operators.

Along the way I started a few e-commerce businesses, but I quickly realized I was more interested in building websites and generating traffic than anything else. That discovery set my path.

Today I help brands scale through organic search — from health e-commerce startups to major digital publishers. I specialize in YMYL verticals like health and finance, where trust and accuracy aren't optional.

I'm thrilled to live at the intersection of SEO and AI. I've already helped brands show up not just in Google, but in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity — that's where discovery is heading, and I'm obsessed with figuring out how to win.
