Claim your profileI am an insatiably curious and driven content strategist, storyteller, and managing editor with nearly a decade of experience. In 2018, I co-founded TheClose.com–an industry-leading site that drove more than 15 million page views (77% organic) from launch to acquisition in December 2022. With fewer than 500 pieces of content, we dominated YMYL SERPs and built a highly-engaged audience that drove 30% YOY revenue growth for 5 years. With measurable experience in nearly every facet of online content, I can help you grow and scale your media business from idea to acquisition. I will lead branding and editorial vision, editorial and SEO strategy, content creation and editing, competitor analysis, hiring talent, audience growth, brand evangelism, strategic UX design, and building contributor programs to 10x EEAT without expensive expert staff writers.
