About

17 years turning organic search into a governed, technical discipline — not a marketing afterthought.

I direct technical SEO at depth: crawl and indexation architecture, site migrations, Core Web Vitals, schema and DNS/CDN infrastructure — alongside entity-led optimization for AI search, including Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), LLM visibility and AI Overviews. I've led SEO delivery across a 14-account multi-sector portfolio, directed teams of up to 15, and recovered sites from Google algorithm penalties for clients across North America and Asia-Pacific. I set strategy and standards while staying hands-on with the technical work itself, rather than handing it off once a strategy document is signed off.

Career

Fourteen years as Head of SEO at MissionOp Inc. — promoted from SEO Executive & Analyst — owning strategy, delivery and client governance across a multi-sector portfolio, including ranking 25+ priority commercial keywords into the top 10 and directing site migrations and redirect strategy without losing organic performance through platform change. Before that, four years directing a 15-person content team at Web Spiders, producing content programs for Mitsubishi, BT and PwC. Since 2023, I've worked as an independent SEO and web strategy advisor and consultant — most recently leading a retained international client portfolio across legal, eCommerce, SaaS and local-service sectors, with full ownership of strategy, technical delivery, governance and performance reporting.
