Your Advantage isn’t the Tool. It’s the System.

Marketing leaders in the AI age aren’t those who collect the most tools or master the most prompts. They’re the ones who can think systematically about marketing challenges and orchestrate AI capabilities toward strategic outcomes.

I build marketing functions that work, and figure out where AI fits in the system.

I document experiments, frameworks, and lessons learned from the frontlines of AI marketing.

I’m exploring strategic questions that matter:

  • What does sustainable competitive advantage look like in an AI world?
  • How do we build marketing systems that compound, not just automate?
