Good Marketing Starts With Good Judgement
Most marketing problems aren't execution problems. They're judgement problems. What to prioritize. What to ignore. What's going to really move the needle for the business you're running right now.
I help founders and leadership teams make clear marketing decisions, then turn those decisions into action. Sometimes that looks like fractional CMO support. Sometimes it's focused strategy, content or campaigns. Sometimes its picking up the cinema camera and putting together incredible visuals. The common thread is clarity before action.
Fractional CMO Support for Growing Businesses
Not every company needs a full-time CMO, but many need senior marketing leadership without the overhead.
As a fractional Chief Marketing Officer, I work alongside founders and internal teams to:
- Define marketing priorities into actionable business goals
- Build plans teams can realistically execute
- Align messaging, channels, and budgets
- Create momentum without complexity.
This works well for businesses in growth or transition. You get experience, perspective, and accountability without hiring too early or guessing your way forward.
Or buying "lead gen" from some kid with a podcast mic.

When a Fractional CMO Makes Sense
Fracitonal CMO support is a strong fit when marketing feels busy but unfocused. You've invested money, but not seeing clear returns. That's because your team needs direction NOT more tasks. This is especialy true if you're preparing for growth, a launch, or a brand reposition.
If any of this sounds familiar, the issue usually isn't effort. It's alignment.
Experience Across Higher Education, SaaS, Service, and Automotive Brands
My background spans everything from live network TV, local news, motorsports, higher education, SaaS startups, and local service providers. That mix matters.
TV teaches speed, accuracy, and calm under pressure. Motorsports brings precision.
Higher ed brings scale, complexity, and stakeholder managment to the party.
SaaS sharpens positioning, messaging, and systems thinking.
Service brands demand clarity, speed, and real-world ROI.
Working across these environments shaped how I approach marketing and media. Strategy first. Execution that serves the strategy. No fluff, no filler. No KPIs for the sake of metrics.
From Strategy to Execution
Depending on the engagement, my role may include:
- Marketing strategy and planning
- Messaging and positioning
- Content and video direction
- Paid media oversight
- Team alignment and process design
The goal is always the same. Make smart decisions easier and bad ones harder.
I am not interested in trends for trends sake or tactics without context. Good marketing should feel, and be, intentional. Not chaotic. That means clear options, not endless opinions. Honest feedback, even if its a tad uncomfortable. That allows us to focus on what matters now, not everything at once. Marketing supports the business. It should never be noise.
Let's Start With What Matters
Every engagment starts the same way. My approach is the same as it was back when I led newsrooms in breaking covereage. Understand the story, the goal, and the constraints. From there we decide what deserves attention.
If you're looking for strategic marketing leadership, fractional CMO support, or help bringing focus to your marketing efforts from someone who has been in the room where it happens, let's talk.
