About

I’ve spent the past 7+ years helping brands grow through strategy, storytelling, and AI systems. Currently Head of Marketing at LayerX - an AI studio building the intelligence layer for modern companies, where I've been building lean marketing with AI that punch above their weight. I like to build and experiment new tools and apps with AI and I occasionally write extremely boring content about Marketing, AI and growth.
