An Enterprise SEO Consultant
Who Delivers
If you’re working with an enterprise SEO agency and you’re seeing stagnating growth, an unfocused SEO strategy, or mounting pressure from the C-suite, you’re not alone.
Most agencies struggle to align SEO with real business objectives. Why? They’re often handcuffed by rigid SOPs and junior-level execution.
That’s where I come in. I focus on understanding your business inside and out, developing a fully customized strategy to deliver against your business goals, earning buy-in from key stakeholders, and providing hands-on senior-level support during the execution phase with structured sprint cycles.



Brands I've Worked With








You Don’t Need Another Slide Deck. You Need Results.
After talking to enough enterprise SEO consultants, it can feel like we’re all interchangeable—recycling canned pitches, hiding behind jargon, and offering little transparency. But that’s not how I operate. I know the real challenges you’re up against:
Your agency can’t tie SEO to sourced or influenced revenue
Reports are filled with vanity metrics the C-suite doesn’t care about
You’re told to “wait for results” while paid search eats your budget
Every downturn is blamed on “the algorithms” or “seasonality”
Getting buy-in & support from tech, product, or legal slows everything down
These aren’t just SEO issues; they’re execution and communication gaps, and fixing them is what I do best.
With 8+ years leading SEO for over 40 companies (from scrappy startups to household names), I specialize in turning stalled organic performance into scalable growth.
I work directly with your SEO leads, developers, copywriters, and product managers to show them the “why” behind what we’re doing, and how their efforts directly impact the bottom-line. I develop the tasks, provide the project management framework, and provide hands-on support every step of the way.

My Approach
Every engagement of mine starts with alignment, not assumptions.
We begin by defining the KPIs that actually matter. For instance: revenue impact, budget efficiency, customer retention, CLTV, and market insights may be areas of focus for your marketing department. I’ll work directly with your analytics team to build a unified reporting dashboard and give the C-suite clear, actionable insights into how SEO is performing across those metrics.
Next, I’ll audit your site’s On-Page SEO (content quality), Off-Page SEO (off-site brand signals), Technical SEO (technical issues and limitations of the site), and CRO elements (page structure and design) to identify the systemwide problems and scalable growth opportunities.
After that, I’ll identify every single search term your target market is searching for (across Google, Perplexity, and ChatGPT) and create a comprehensive content roadmap so that we answer every question they have at every stage of the buying journey. This will be complete with traffic and impact forecasts tied to your business goals.
With the strategy established, I deliver a 12-month execution plan, organized into sprint cycles with clear task ownership and direct alignment to your objectives. I stay actively involved through meetings, emails, and project boards with your team to ensure smooth execution.
Finally, I review performance data regularly to evaluate what’s working, what needs adjustment, and how to evolve the strategy. The focus remains on measurable ROI, not just rankings.
FAQs
Straightforward answers to help you make an informed decision.

AI search is still in its infancy, and no one has a definitive playbook yet. With that said, I actively pay attention to new strategies, case studies, and data from reputable sources (Profound, Ahrefs, etc.) to formulate my approach for this emerging field, which I then run tests with my clients, and analyze what actually influences AI visibility. My goal is to help you get ahead of the curve rather than waiting for the industry to catch up.
I’ve worked with clients across SaaS, Ecommerce, real estate, and news media. While specific tactics may vary by industry, the core principles of SEO remain consistent. At the heart of it, both search engines and AI-driven platforms aim to deliver the most relevant and helpful response to a user’s query.
My approach is to reverse-engineer what your audience is searching for at every stage of the buying journey, deliver content that meets their intent in the format they prefer, ensure your site is easily understood by search engines, and build positive brand sentiment across every corner of the internet your audience frequents. That is how you build an audience, a brand, and a future in an ever-evolving landscape.
I carefully craft dashboards, slide decks, and emails that speak their language (revenue impact, budget efficiency, and customer acquisition cost), not just traffic and rankings. I also help you prepare summaries so you’re always ready to justify investment and showcase wins in executive meetings.
I build SEO plans that factor in realistic resource constraints. I help prioritize initiatives based on impact vs. effort, and when possible, assist with implementation directly or work with your agency partners to move things forward without overloading internal teams.
Yes. I’ve worked with clients in healthcare, finance, and wellness (all industries with strict oversight). I tailor content strategies to meet legal and brand guidelines, while still driving performance.
While SEO is a long-term investment, many of my clients see early wins within the first 90 days (especially if there are major technical blockers or high-potential quick wins). I’ll provide a realistic forecast during our initial audit.
I don’t just hand off recommendations. I embed directly into your workflows (joining team calls, tracking in project management tools, and ensuring every task has clear ownership and a follow-up path). My goal is to remove friction and make SEO progress inevitable.
Absolutely. I facilitate alignment sessions to ensure SEO supports broader marketing, product, and revenue goals. I also help resolve conflicting priorities between content, brand, and growth teams (turning SEO into a strategic bridge, not a silo).
I work exclusively on a monthly retainer basis (hourly consulting isn’t currently available), with just a 60-day notice required to end the engagement at any time.
Pricing largely depends on the scope and urgency of your needs, as well as the level of cross-team support your organization needs.
Engagements can be as low as $5,000 / month (my minimum retainer), but I’ve found that $10,000 / month usually provides me with the time needed to fulfill all of your needs.
