FULL STACK
MARKETING LEADER
I build brands the same way I learned to build buildings: with strong foundations, clear intent, and no tolerance for things that look good but don’t hold up.
My work spans strategy, brand, GTM, events, and marketing operations. I tend to work across the full stack because that’s where decisions compound—where creative, systems, and revenue intersect. I’m most often brought in when things are ambiguous, fragmented, or moving fast, and there’s a need to turn vision into structure without slowing momentum.
Before marketing, I spent a decade in construction project management leading multi-million-dollar projects. That background still shapes how I operate. I think in blueprints, constraints, and critical paths. I value craft, but I’m equally focused on durability, efficiency, and execution. Ideas don’t stay theoretical for long.
At Umbra, I led brand, GTM, and experiential strategy in a highly regulated space environment—repositioning the company, launching new business lines, and turning global events into moments of real market presence. At Buildxact, I’m focused on rebuilding marketing from the inside out: modernizing operations, introducing AI-assisted workflows, and reshaping how the brand speaks to builders in a way that reflects how the work actually gets done.
Across industries—space, defense, SaaS, hardware, and real estate—the throughline in my work is alignment. Brand and sales. Creative and operations. Vision and execution. When those pieces lock together, scale follows naturally.
This portfolio reflects how I think, how I build, and the standards I hold the work to.
