Sydney-based Google & Meta Ads consultant with 10+ years in marketing across ecommerce, B2B SaaS and lead generation. I currently work as Head of Demand Generation at Splose and take on focused remote freelance projects alongside my permanent role.

At Incubeta, I managed and scaled Google Ads investment for Freedom Furniture from approximately AUD 100,000 to over AUD 1 million per month. I also personally managed Meta Ads for Hanes and Freedom Furniture, each above AUD 100,000 per month. At Digital Rhinos, I helped reduce CPA by 30% for the largest client.

Services: Google Ads Search, Shopping and Performance Max; Meta Ads audits, setup and optimisation; GA4/GTM tracking and Meta Pixel/CAPI; CRO and landing-page testing; Looker Studio/Supermetrics reporting, budget pacing and forecasting. I also support clearly scoped HubSpot workflows and digital operations such as spreadsheet/CRM clean-up, research and content updates.

Maximum availability: 15 hours per week IN TOTAL across all freelance clients, including meetings and execution. Meetings are best on Tuesday afternoons and Thursdays, Sydney time; execution is more flexible within the agreed scope. Any day rate is an 8-hour pricing reference, not a commitment to full-time availability.

Additional hands-on channels: LinkedIn Ads, TikTok Ads, Snapchat Ads and Reddit Ads. Freelancing since 2016.
