Sr. Director, Growth Marketing 

Hey there! 👋

My name is JK and I’m passionate about marketing. There’s something special about bringing products to the market that enrich people’s lives. 

More than 10 years of marketing and leadership experience has equipped me to produce practical solutions individually and in a team environment. 

Instead of chasing the latest “growth hack” I build sustainable and predictable growth levers. 

I’ve worked in both bootstrapped and well-funded businesses scaling from <$100K to more than $100M in revenue. Seeing success with both PLG and Sales-led motions.

I have a passion to help people develop; with a proven track record fostering an environment where individuals become the best version of themselves and produce incredible results for the team and organization.

⭐️ Be of value and abundance will follow. ⭐️


I also do growth and marketing consulting, DM me if you’re looking for help 🚀

"Whatever it is, there’s a Circle for that."

There’s no denying it. Times Square is iconic and magical.

So we brought that magic to life with something special.

Circle communities now bring together 12M+ members and tens of thousands of creators and community businesses driving transformation and growth every day.

To celebrate them, we flew a few of our customers to NYC to see themselves (and their communities) up on the big screen in Times Square.

Tracy Avin — TroopHR (1,500+ members)
A professional network where HR leaders gain expert insights, join peer discussions, and grow their careers.

Jonathan Truong — Codecademy (80,000+ members)
An e-learning platform teaching AI, data, coding, and cybersecurity skills to unlock new opportunities.

Courtney Spritzer — Entreprenista (3,000+ members)
A membership empowering women founders to connect, collaborate, and scale their businesses with confidence.

Mila Clarke, MS, NBC-HWC — @Glucose Guide (2,000+ members)
A community for people living with diabetes to share experiences, get guidance, and access recipes and coaching.

Each of them represents what we believe at Circle: community is where transformation happens.

Seeing it all come to life in Times Square was something special.

Huge shoutout to the Circle team who brought this campaign to life. 

Alexis Teichmiller, Jordan Anderson, Zita Török, Ceri Looker, Cauê Oliveira, Andrew Guttormsen, Mohamed Zahid, and so many more who made the magic happen.
