Operations & Marketing Leader

I run operations and lead marketing, with SEO, GEO and AEO at the center of how I grow businesses. Then I build the systems, tools and software that make it all work. 13+ years in, with four companies founded and sites I've taken from zero traffic to #1 on Google.

Companies I’ve founded

Three I started and one I co-founded. Each one began as a problem worth solving properly.

Why I build

The reasonfor everything.

Tailynn and our three boys, Dayton, Aspen and Cohen, are my world. Every system I build, every late night, every project I ship is ultimately for them.

Building is just how I'm wired. For 13 years I've kept running into the same thing: a gap between what a business needs and what actually exists. I can't leave it alone. I find the gap, then I build the thing that fills it.

I operate with one belief:

there's always a solution, or a better one waiting to be found.

I don't get stuck. I figure it out, build it, or find the path forward.

My operating belief
What I do

Build, Launch, Grow

Operations & Systems

01

I build the infrastructure that lets businesses scale without breaking. Workflow redesigns, vendor optimization, CRM architecture, process automation. I find the inefficiencies and replace them with systems that run themselves.

ExampleConstruction Task Manager: cut project coordination overhead by 40%.

AI & Automation

02

I replace manual processes with intelligent systems. Voice AI for phone handling, automated lead scoring and routing, content generation pipelines, data analysis tools. If a human is doing something repetitive, I build the system that does it better.

ExampleBrostCo: AI that finds, analyzes and prepares government contract bids.

Marketing & SEO

03

I drive real, measurable growth. SEO that has taken sites from zero traffic to the #1 result, GEO and AEO for visibility in AI search, local search that puts service businesses at the top of their market, paid campaigns that lower acquisition costs, and funnels that turn visitors into customers.

ExampleLawn Care Kuna: the top result for lawn care searches in its market.

Product & Development

04

I ship real products. Lead generation sites, marketplaces, internal tools, mobile apps, from concept to live users. I design, build, and launch full-stack applications using React, Next.js, and Python.

ExampleRecoveryRoad: a private sobriety app live on iOS and Android.

SEO · GEO · AEO

I grow businessesthrough search.

Search isn't a side skill for me. It's how I've grown businesses for years and the core of what webIQ sells. I handle the whole stack: technical SEO, local signals, content, generative and answer engine optimization for AI search, and the conversion work that turns visibility into calls.

  • 01

    Technical SEO

    Site architecture, crawlability, Core Web Vitals, schema markup and fast, clean builds.

  • 02

    Local SEO

    Google Business Profile, service-area pages, citations and reviews that win the map pack.

  • 03

    Content & on‑page

    Keyword research, content architecture and pages written to rank and to convert.

  • 04

    GEO & AEO

    Generative and answer engine optimization so brands get cited in AI Overviews, ChatGPT and other AI answers.

  • 05

    Analytics & reporting

    GA4, Search Console, Ahrefs and SEMrush, tied back to leads and revenue, not vanity rankings.

  • 06

    Conversion

    Rankings only matter if people call. Every page is built to turn search traffic into leads.
