About
I run Zero Click Marketing — the podcast and marketing consultancy. I'm Chief Evangelist of audience research startup, SparkToro. In my spare time, I write a marketing newsletter called the Menu.
I started our SparkToro Office Hours webinar series which garners as many as 1,300 signups per show. I also launched SparkToro's Audience Research newsletter, which has over 50,000 readers.
Previously, I was the Head of Marketing for Growth Machine, where I grew the podcast to 20k+ downloads. Prior to that, I helped build Fitbit's B2B marketing team.
My professional career started in journalism. I was the editorial producer for tech news sites paidContent.org and Gigaom. Along the way, I realized a passion for food and enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu. Then I worked at the Los Angeles Times' test kitchen.
