A look at the businesses I've built marketing systems for — and what those systems produced.
Carvers had the accolades — voted Best Steakhouse in Salt Lake — but their digital presence wasn't telling that story. We rebuilt it from the ground up: social content that matches the quality of the dining experience, a Google Business Profile that captures local intent, and a review system that turns satisfied guests into vocal advocates.
As Director of Marketing, I own the full funnel — from brand awareness to dealer-level performance campaigns. This means budget allocation across SEO, PPC, social, email, and community sponsorships, plus AI-powered executive reporting that gives leadership real-time clarity on what's working and what's not.
NL Consulting is the practice I built to bring enterprise-level marketing thinking to small and local businesses. The model is simple: audit what's broken, prioritize what moves the needle, and build AI-powered systems that keep producing after the engagement ends. Every client gets direct access to me — not an account manager.
At the Tribune, my job was to take Utah's most-read news brand and turn it into a digital advertising vehicle for local businesses. That meant building the pitch, managing the campaigns, and delivering results for clients who were often buying digital media for the first time — and needed to see ROI fast enough to renew.
As a Partner Manager at MarketStar embedded in Pinterest's SMB program, I managed a portfolio of small business advertisers — advising on campaign strategy, growing spend, and re-engaging dormant accounts. The job was part sales, part consultant, part data analyst. I exceeded quota by activating cold accounts and squeezing more from the ones already running.
I take on a limited number of clients at a time. If you're serious about growing, let's find out if we're a fit.
