Digital Marketer & Process Improvement NERD - I help companies improve their systems and processes, amplify their voice, increase awareness and drive leads.

Most B2B marketing generates noise. Ours generates pipeline.

I help High Tech and Life Sciences CEOs cut through the chaos and build marketing systems that predictably convert visibility into qualified leads—without the guesswork.

After decades leading digital strategy and P&L in life sciences and operations, I've seen the same pattern: smart teams drowning in tactics that look busy but don't move numbers. They chase trends. We build engines.

Here's what I know: Your buyers aren't hiding. They're ignoring you because your marketing doesn't earn their time.

That's why I founded D3 Digital Media Marketing and created WAVES—a retained, end-to-end growth system designed for B2B companies scaling to $250M. We don't do campaigns. We build compounding systems that create sales conversations.

The WAVES framework (simplified):

• Website as a sales tool – Clear messaging, zero friction, built to convert
• Advanced SEO – Own buyer intent. 2-3x traffic that actually qualifies
• Video + live events – Turn your experts into demand generators
• Social that sells – Content that starts conversations with decision-makers, not engagement farmers
• Strategic PR – Credibility where it counts

Every 90 days, we measure what moves pipeline and eliminate what doesn't. No vanity metrics. No "let's try this." Just disciplined execution and clear ROI.

Why clients choose us: They arrive overwhelmed by options and underwhelmed by results. They leave with a system that compounds—attention that turns into appointments, content that builds trust, and marketing that finally justifies its budget.

If you're a CEO or CMO tired of marketing theater and ready for marketing that funds itself, let's map your next 90 days. I'll show you exactly where the gaps are and how we'll fill them.

We help our clients amplify their voice so that they can: create well qualified leads, increase awareness and attract investors.

Why do brilliant robotics founders with game-changing technology still struggle to scale? Join me on the Growth Revealed Podcast where I discuss with Jesica Chavez 🤖🎙️, founder of Robo Success, about why founders can't do everything themselves and shouldn't try to. We explore the reality of startup burnout, the importance of focusing on what you do best, and practical strategies for robotics companies going to market for the first time. It's a conversation packed with actionable insights for anyone building a hardware and software company in today's competitive landscape.

My life has been an adventure. 

If I told you stories, you'd cry (read more)

I've always been an "outsider".

I wanted to be a Buddhist monk when I was 10 - shortly after my parents divorce. 

I got into drugs, alcohol, petty crime at age 12 

(Don’t worry, I haven't touched drugs or alcohol since I was 14)

And then things got interesting…

I bounced around between my parents. 

Experienced bullying, abuse, betrayal, and neglect. 

Learned about Islam and became Muslim. 

I worked for an international relief agency. 

It was the 90’s so I saw the horrors of the Bosnian war (systematic rape and genocide)

The Kashmiri conflict (brutal military occupation)

The Babri masjid massacres in India (people hacked with machetes and burned alive)

The chaos in Central Asia after the fall of the Soviet Union (families with children crossing the Dushanbe river)

I also lived in Chicago and experienced:

Carjackings (3 of my friends have been carjacked)

Drive by shootings (at the park)

Home burglaries.

The assault and battery of my mom by an armed robber. 

Police helicopter air raids. 

I have friends that have been shot - and I have friends that have shot others. 

Because I lived in Rogers Park (the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in the United States) I had:

Cambodian friends. 

Eritrean friends. 

Romanian friends. 

Bosnian friends. 

Black friends. 

Irish Catholic friends. 

Mexican friends. 

I have childhood friends that have seen war and killing in their home countries - prior to coming to the US. 

As a result of my upbringing- I committed my life to spreading Islam because I saw (and see) it as a solution to a lot of problems. 

I dedicated my life to it. 

And I got married at the age of 19. 

My parents betrayed me and my new bride because of their hatred for each other. 

I spent the next 20 years teaching, speaking, and writing about Islam. 

I thought I would be a political prisoner at 25 and dead by 30. 

I know people that have been abducted and tortured by foreign governments. 

But I consider myself blessed. 

Allah has shown me all of this pain, but kept me just far enough from it that it didn’t make me go crazy. 

As a result, I have strong opinions.

I could care less about more friends, approval from strangers on the internet, or impressing any of you.

I've always wanted freedom.

Now I build systems that allow me to be free using books and LinkedIn.

Occasionally, I help others do the same.
