Thank you for taking the time to check out my page! Long story short: I'm a Marketing Strategist and Content Producer devoted to trust building. Long story long: After my father's passing at age 13 I knew I needed to start covering some of my own expenses. I pitched party tents at 13, stocked a deli at 14, and caddied the greens at 15. Shortly before my 16th birthday I became the first hire at a new Thai restaurant. This kicked off an 8 year career in the service industry, where I excelled as the highest-earning server and bartender at every restaurant I worked in. This sales and marketing experience made Marist's marketing program a simple decision to make, and I continued my service career throughout COVID. During this time I simultaneously grew an interest in video production. As a tech-savvy 13 year old in reading class I was NOT interesting in writing essays, and was given the option to create a video report instead. This project kicked off a school career full of videos of all kinds, from movie trailers to news shows to puppets on green screen. As I continued into college I was hyper-aware of the impact of video in the marketing world, and committed to a minor in video production. I worked hard throughout my college career, which was ended half a semester early by COVID. This led me back to bartending, giving me the opportunity to capture photos of food and drinks, as well as all the new COVID dogs that were being brought to our outdoor dining. Complimentary dog photos led to paid car photos, weddings, and my first business projects. In September of 2021 I dedicated myself to providing marketing material that does more than just shows the obvious. I found out the BEST way to differentiate yourself is to build trust and saw that many do this through face to face networking, but lack the capability of connecting with others online. I found ways to help my clients build trust with strangers to grow their businesses the right way. In summer of 2023 I met with the partners of AB Marketing and found that we have quite a few similarities, values offerings, and experiences as business owners. After much conversation I received an offer to acquire my clients, and myself as a business development executive. Now I get to focus entirely on my client's marketing needs and growth goals, as well as spend time making new friends. This came at the same time I moved into a new home and married my wife, Katee, and I am so looking forward to this next chapter. Looking forward to my time spent on here, and I truly hope to meet you. Much love!
