A health insurance brokerage for startups and small companies, built because the benefits market only ever shows founders one option. We shop across level-funded, partially self-funded, and PEO structures, manage claims year round, and disclose our commissions in writing before anyone signs.
I build the machine, then I run it.
I'm a builder and operator who uses AI to do the work of a team. Give me a problem in marketing, revenue operations, sales, systems, or software, and I'll ship the thing that solves it. Usually that means a custom tool, not a slide deck.
I founded a company and sold it. Then I ran marketing, RevOps, and sales by myself for a business with five product lines. The range is the point.
Below is the sourced version, with the numbers I can defend.
"Most marketing leaders at companies our size would take 6 to 9 months to stand up this much infrastructure. You did it in under 4."

What I've done
Ran the entire marketing function alone across five product lines, then built and led a two-person team. Marketing, revenue operations, sales, and the tooling underneath all of it.
- Grew organic search impressions 521% in one month, from 16K to 102K. Average position moved from 10.3 to 5.6.
- Published 170+ SEO articles that outranked Y Combinator, Forbes, and HubSpot on target terms, and earned a #2 ranking on both ChatGPT and Perplexity for the category's core buyer query.
- Ran all marketing for a Regulation CF community raise that brought in $307,950. Wrote the pitch page, built the investor email drips, ran the webinar program.
- Built an in-house cold outbound engine sending ~29,700 emails a month across 135 inboxes, with a custom AI personalization layer that replaced a $600+/month tool.
- Built the paid stack from scratch (roughly 35 Google and 14 LinkedIn campaigns, plus Microsoft, Reddit, Quora, and retargeting) and held 6 to 8% CTR, above benchmark.
- Built the revenue operations backbone in HubSpot from nothing: pipelines, dashboards, forecasting, a data model per product line. Led the integration of an acquired company into the parent brand.
- Built custom tools in Claude Code (ad campaign generators, a lead enrichment pipeline, self-sending reports) that replaced paid software and covered the work of extra headcount.
Founded and led a two-sided B2B SaaS marketplace connecting founders with vetted software deals. Grew it to a self-sustaining six-figure business. Bootstrapped, never raised.
- Grew partnerships from 70 to 250+, including 90+ revenue-share agreements.
- Coordinated $560K+ in custom SaaS deals and reached $60K ARR as the only full-time employee.
- Held 1,200+ sales calls at a 90% retention rate.
- Built a 10,000+ subscriber audience with no paid marketing, and moved the platform from no-code to custom code without the technical debt.
- Ran every function (sales, ops, finance, product, support) and managed the product through multiple pivots.
First sales hire at a fintech startup. Built the sales motion from zero: scripts, sequences, templates, reporting.
- Generated $430K in pipeline (90% outbound) from 89 SAOs, closing $20K ARR.
- Ran 50+ demos as the highest-performing rep, and built the team's Salesforce reports and funnel dashboard.
- Built partner-channel relationships that produced 43+ referrals.
Before that
What I can run
A go-to-market engineer, a fractional marketing lead, or the person who builds the systems underneath both. Any of the three, or some combination.
Full-funnel, run end to end. Paid across Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn, Reddit and Quora. SEO and AI-search visibility. Cold outbound at scale. Lifecycle, landing pages, newsletter, content systems.
My deepest specialty. HubSpot architecture from scratch, ICP data models, lead scoring and routing, attribution, dashboards, forecasting.
This runs underneath the other five. Custom tools built in Claude Code, agentic workflows, AI-assisted production at volume, and build-versus-buy calls. I have replaced paid software with custom builds where the economics made sense.
Full-stack web apps (React, TypeScript, Node), data pipelines in Python handling 1M+ rows, internal knowledge bases with search and auth, and production websites from design through deploy.
Carried a quota and managed to one. Pipeline discipline, stage definitions, rep dashboards, forecasting, win/loss loops, sequences and playbooks, clean handoff between sales and marketing.
SOPs and knowledge bases, so the work isn't trapped in one person's head. Vendor selection and management. Acquisition integration, start to finish.
How I like to work
- Diagnostic first. A short paid audit to find the highest-leverage work before anyone commits to a big build.
- Build, then hand off. I build to a working state and document it, so it runs without me. Durable capability, not dependency.
- Against a number. Every engagement ties to a measurable outcome where one exists.
- Flexible shape. Fractional leadership, a full-time role, a project build, or hands-on execution. We scope it to the problem and worry about the label later.

Hiring, or need someone to build it?
A role, a fractional engagement, or a project. The conversation starts the same way, so bring me the thing that's stuck.
