The Full Capability Set. AI Implementation and Marketing Leadership.
Two disciplines built simultaneously, not sequentially. Enterprise AI implementation with four years of production deployment. Full-stack marketing leadership from startup to Fortune 1000. This is what both look like when mapped to their full scope.
AI Implementation
Enterprise AI Implementation
Four years of production deployment inside a $40M enterprise — before the organization had a formal AI strategy, AI budget, or dedicated AI team.
☑ AI tool suite design and deployment — built 10 integrated tools grounded in real company knowledge, not generic model outputs
☑ AI governance framework — data handling standards by sensitivity tier, consent management with legal review, human-in-the-loop decision points by workflow type, IP protection guardrails, and usage policies by role and function
☑ Workflow redesign for AI leverage — auditing existing workflows against seven failure points, identifying which processes are AI-ready versus which need clarity work first, redesigning work systems around the tool rather than layering tools on unchanged processes
☑ Adoption programs and team training — role-specific training across U.S. and Brazil teams, building institutional capability rather than individual dependency
☑ Measurement systems and outcome tracking — establishing baselines before deployment, defining productivity metrics tied to actual output quality, tracking results through quarterly model changes
☑ Model maintenance and system durability — maintained production AI systems through four years of quarterly model updates without capability regression
☑ Prompt architecture and knowledge grounding — custom GPT development, Claude Projects, and knowledge-grounded AI architecture equivalent to enterprise RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems
☑ AI readiness assessment — organizational scoring across five dimensions: workflow readiness, governance maturity, team capability, measurement infrastructure, and leadership alignment
◇ Enterprise AI vendor evaluation — assessed platforms including OpenAI, Anthropic, and integration layers for organizational fit; did not lead formal procurement
AI-Enabled Marketing Operations
Marketing functions have been AI-enabled since 2023. This is a separate skill set from enterprise AI implementation — both are real and both are documented here.
☑ AI-powered content production workflows — draft automation, outline generation, internal linking, performance monitoring; 20 to 30% faster execution cycle without quality reduction
☑ AI-driven SEO and content systems — AI SEO, pillar-cluster architecture with AI-assisted research, technical optimization; contributed to 30.5% year-over-year organic traffic increase
☑ Marketing workflow automation — campaign setup, lead scoring, segmentation, reporting cadence; reduced manual production time by 40% on core deliverables
☑ AI attribution and analytics — fixing Google Analytics 4 attribution failures, building closed-loop reporting with Looker Studio, deploying AI-assisted ROI tracking for campaign-level decisions
☑ AI sales enablement tools — resume builder, testimonial assistant, and sales tool suite built on ChatGPT API and deployed in production inside a live enterprise portal
☑ Generative AI for demand generation — ABM targeting intelligence, personalization at scale, outreach sequencing
☑ AI tool stack management — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Copilot, Gemini, Jasper, Zapier, Gravity Connect, OpenAI API, UTM.io, Wordhero, Writeseed; evaluated, selected, integrated, and maintained in production
Advanced and Specialized Capabilities
Capabilities with real organizational application that fall outside standard marketing categories.
☑ Intent data and predictive lead scoring — familiar with Bombora, 6sense, and G2; partnered with sales and operations to evaluate and apply insights to ABM targeting and pipeline prioritization
☑ Platform and marketplace marketing — two-sided growth dynamics, ecosystem visibility, affiliate program design and management
☑ Video and podcast production — content strategy, production coordination, and distribution across YouTube and podcast platforms; host and producer of FueledBySuccess content
☑ Conversation intelligence — awareness of Gong and Chorus outputs; integrated findings into sales-marketing alignment programs and go-to-market refinement when data was available
◇ Open source and developer marketing — limited direct exposure; collaborated with technical teams on community and education initiatives; understands the audience and the distinct content approach required
◇ Analyst relations — Gartner, Forrester, and IDC briefing awareness; positioning support; primary execution led through agency and specialist partnerships
