I lead growth at a US-based marketing agency as well help service businesses across North America generate more leads, close more deals, and scale sustainably.

At Optimized Marketing, I began life as a CRO expert and Client Advocate before quickly becoming the person responsible for:

- Driving expansion into new verticals 
- Designing lead gen frameworks that turn traffic into customers 
- Launching scalable CRM infrastructure (both in-house and for clients)
- Representing the agency publicly at major national conferences and vendor events
- Building internal systems that improve follow-up, client success, and brand stickiness
- Identifying 'gaps' and areas for growth - then creating the systems to make growth a reality

Before that, I built my career in high-stakes construction dispute resolution — being part of teams resolving complex, high-pressure claims where strategic thinking and sharp communication were essential. That background trained me to listen deeply, move fast, and keep people aligned when the stakes are high.

I’ve also launched and sold a restaurant brand from scratch in Hong Kong - the world's most competitive F&B market - with no outside funding or safety net. 

That business taught me the hard-earned lessons that only a business owner can understand as I brought to life something that was previously missing from the local market. 

It was lessons learned from growth that pulled me into marketing—and grounded my approach in commercial reality.

What I bring:

- Strategic thinking with a bias for clarity and momentum
- Deep expertise in CRO, lead generation, and system design
- A founder’s mindset—driven by results, not vanity metrics

You've built the authority.
Now let's build the revenue and impact to match.

You've done the hard work - published books, spoken on stages, and been invited to podcasts.
You're established and trusted in your field.

But your systems aren't converting that attention into the revenue your expertise deserves.
Which means less impact than your mission could create.

The gap looks like:
 ➤ Followers and website traffic don't convert into enough leads
 ➤ Chasing clients instead of serving them
 ➤ Overwhelmed by marketing, tech, and operations

The proprietary F.A.R.O. method I developed over the years keeps you focused on what actually scales an expert-led business: clear strategy, predictable client acquisition, a scalable offer, and systems that work without you.
