Key Strengths

  • Owned and scaled a $150K/month Google Ads ecommerce account end-to-end (performance, structure, pacing, reporting)
  • Improved ROAS from ~2.2 to ~5 in under three months while scaling revenue sustainably
  • High-spend account structuring discipline (brand vs non-brand separation; product-tier segmentation for Shopping/PMax)
  • Methodical, single-variable testing approach that reduces false positives and improves repeatability
  • Performance Max volatility control via disciplined change management and clear testing windows
  • Strong feed optimization capability driving more consistent Shopping/PMax performance
  • Deep diagnostic approach to performance declines (intent dilution, SKU-level budget drift, auction pressure, learning dilution) with recovery actions
  • Cross-channel full-funnel strategy and incremental budget allocation using blended metrics (branded search lift, assisted conversions, MER)
  • Client-safe communication: frames results in business outcomes, transparent tradeoffs, clear next steps
