I just really love growing ecommerce brands.
That love first formed in 2015 when I began my ecom career as a media buyer at QALO in the heart of its run from $0-$20M in 1.5 years with no external funding. I led our efforts on Facebook Ads, Google Ads, and direct media buys in digital and print.
After the exhilaration of that rapid growth, I became a growth strategist at the newly-formed Common Thread Collective (CTC), a digital sales agency that helps entrepreneurs achieve their dreams. Within two years I was promoted up to VP of Growth, where I led our digital strategy.
Soon after, CTC spun off its brands via its DTC aggregator, 4×400, and I was eager to get my hands dirty there. So I slid over to lead growth at 4×400 until again promoted within two years, this time to CEO.
I ran 4×400 until December 2021, leading up to 6 brands at a time, and now work as an outsourced ecommerce growth executive across multiple brands, where I get to keep doing exactly what I love:
Grow ecommerce brands.
