Search Engine Optimization

As an SEO expert and digital marketing director, I build SEO programs that elevate visibility, strengthen brand authority, and create long-term, sustainable organic growth. My SEO work integrates technical optimization, editorial strategy, SEO-informed UX, and content workflows that scale—ensuring every page and every story is discoverable, compelling, and aligned with user intent.

My Approach as an SEO Expert


​​Technical SEO That Builds a Strong Foundation


Strong rankings start with strong structure. I collaborate with developers, designers, and product teams to embed SEO into a website’s architecture rather than layering it on afterward.


My technical SEO work includes:

  • Metadata and schema strategy

  • Site structure and taxonomy planning

  • URL hierarchy and clean architecture

  • Accessibility best practices

  • Internal linking systems

  • SEO QA during website redesigns and new feature launches


​Across multiple website redesigns, I've ensured SEO is built into the infrastructure, content templates, and publishing workflows, rather than treated as an afterthought.


Editorial SEO That Strengthens Content Quality​

As both an SEO expert and a seasoned content strategist, I specialize in optimizing editorial systems to produce content that ranks, resonates, and converts.


My editorial SEO process includes:

  • Keyword research and search intent analysis

  • Content briefs for writers

  • On-page SEO optimization

  • Heading structure and scannability improvements

  • Metadata writing and refinement

  • Updating or rewriting evergreen content

  • Strengthening narratives for both humans and search engines


​At XPRIZE, I reviewed all blogs and editorial content before publication, ensuring they met SEO standards and aligned with organizational goals.


Strategic Content Architecture​

Great SEO depends on clear structure. I partner with design, UX, and dev teams to ensure content is organized in ways that maximize discoverability and user pathways.


This includes:

  • Building scalable content models in headless CMS platforms

  • Creating navigation systems informed by SEO and user behavior

  • Unifying categories, tags, and taxonomies

  • Designing templates that support both editorial needs and SEO performance


​This approach ensures that new content naturally fits into the site ecosystem and continues to grow visibility over time.


Performance Analysis & Continuous Optimization

As a digital marketing director, I monitor SEO performance not just for rankings but for impact across the full marketing ecosystem.


I analyze:

  • Organic traffic trends

  • Year-over-year growth

  • Keyword ranking shifts

  • Search behavior around launches and announcements

  • Engagement (time on page, scroll depth)

  • CTA performance and downstream conversions


​Insights inform new content, site improvements, and strategic priorities — making SEO an ongoing, measurable driver of results.
