My career began in electrical engineering, specializing in control systems within the oil and gas industry. That foundation taught me how to break down problems, think critically under pressure, and optimize technical systems. When the industry shifted, I pivoted into digital marketing - a move driven by necessity, but empowered by transferable skills. I used my engineering mindset to master HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and built integrated workflows across platforms like Shopify, HubSpot, and SMS tools using APIs and conditional logic.

As a Shopify eCommerce Manager, I oversaw the development and optimization of apparel storefronts generating $1M-$6M in annual sales for high-profile clients in the entertainment and music industry.

I began my career as a Control Systems Engineer at Stella Maris LLC, designing electrical control systems for subsea wells and oilfield equipment in the oil and gas industry.

I've developed over 20 websites using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, HubSpot CMS, and WordPress for high-profile personalities, TV networks, and contemporary Christian artists. On the SEO side, I increased organic search visibility with targeted content strategies, ranking pages in the top 10 of search engine results and growing organic traffic by over 50% in less than six months. I approach SEO the same way I approach engineering - data-driven, systematic, and focused on measurable outcomes.
