ConsumerDirect

Senior Content & Video Producer (Growth Marketing & Paid Media)

SmartCredit · SmartQualify · Hogo

Own the full funnel for a multi-brand fintech B2B portfolio: paid media across Meta and Google, the creative that runs in it, the lead forms and landing pages it points to, the HubSpot email and SMS sequences that follow, and the UTM tracking that proves what worked. I write, film, and edit the ads myself, which means I can test a new hypothesis in a day instead of a sprint. Manage a team of 3 and report channel performance directly to the Chief of Sales.

Partner comms and landing pages

COPY / BUILD / TEST

Draft and design the email and SMS campaigns that go to our B2B partners through HubSpot sequences, from conference ticket sales copy to live training recruitment. Build the landing pages for individual offers and verticals, writing copy that carries one consistent message from ad through to page. Run A/B tests across creative, landing pages, and landing pages versus in-platform lead forms, and maintain the UTM taxonomy that makes every lead traceable back to the campaign and creative that produced it.

One message, ad to inbox to page.

Tax Pro Lead-Gen Ads

STRATEGY / SCRIPT / FILM / EDIT / LAUNCH

Inherited a mandate to run Meta ads driving traffic to a landing page on a platform I had no access to, since I was new and access sat with the CTO. Even after getting a pixel installed, the page didn't convert: 4,050 link clicks produced 4 leads at $689 each. I was told to keep the campaign running. Instead of spending against a page I couldn't fix, I scripted and filmed a new ad and moved to Meta instant lead forms with conditional logic and SMS verification. I built the lead routing myself, first into a Google Sheet, then into HubSpot with naming conventions and UTM parameters so every lead was attributable to the right vertical and channel. That routing is now fully automated.

My own ad opened the vertical at ~$35 CPL · 700+ leads since April · Employee of the Month, month 2

Original cut · $45 CPL

Recast · $25.60 CPL

Casting as a targeting lever

HYPOTHESIS / FILM / EDIT

My own ad opened the vertical at ~$33 CPL, then drifted to $45 as frequency built and CPM rose. The audience had also concentrated: mostly female tax pros, 40 to 50. In a Special Ad Category vertical, demographic targeting is restricted, so the lever isn't audience settings, it's who's on camera. I re-shot the same proven script with a female account manager presenting. The audience rebalanced, the addressable pool widened, and CPL dropped to $25.60 across 218 leads.

$45 → $25.60. Same script, different talent.

Lead gen

Mobile Video Podcast Setup

Build / Film / Edit

A portable podcast setup built for conferences and a deliberate lead-gen play. Attendees in this vertical love content, so we turned that into a system: they book a podcast slot, we capture their info and mark them as leads for BDRs to follow up. The same setup also captures partner testimonials on-site, like this one filmed at CreditCon in Las Vegas.

FILM / EDIT / PRODUCER

When partners travel to ConsumerDirect offices, I capture the behind-the-scenes content: the relationship-building, the culture, and the people behind the partnership. I turn routine visits into content that strengthens trust with partners and prospects alike.

Creative Strategist

Promoted after one year

Led creative performance on a $200,000/month ad budget. Built scalable creative frameworks for the finance and tax vertical, a low-visual-interest category that only converts with real storytelling.

Performance

Employee DTC Ads

CREATIVE STRATEGIST / FILM / EDIT

Filmed DTC ad creative starring the VP of Sales, constantly pushing for sharper, more creative hooks to capture attention in a category with nothing pretty to point a camera at. That focus on hook quality kept performance high, consistently hitting 6x ROAS: proof the hooks were doing their job.

6x ROAS increase

UGC

Creator Program

CREATIVE STRATEGY / TALENT & PRODUCTION LEAD

Managed UGC paid creators end-to-end, casting, briefs, shoot direction, and cutdowns feeding the paid account weekly. Used creative to test into new audience segments (nurses, truck drivers, and other 1099-type workers), constantly iterating on concepts, angles, formats, and hooks to find what resonated with each.

Consistent creative supply for paid, audience-tested at the concept level

Retargeting

Live Testimonial Calls

CREATIVE STRATEGY / FILM / EDIT

Filmed live client testimonial calls and repurposed them as retargeting ads for bottom-of-funnel audiences. Skeptical viewers who hadn't converted yet could see real results from real clients, turning hesitation into trust at exactly the point they needed it.

Built for the skeptics, proof at the bottom of the funnel

Creative format

"5 Cups" Ad Format

CREATIVE CONCEPT / FILM / EDIT

Created a visual ad format using labeled cups, each representing a common IRS tax problem, with the VP of Sales walking through all five before a punchline payoff at the end. The format performed exceptionally well, proving that unconventional visual devices could outperform standard talking-head UGC, and became a new format blueprint for future creative.

OCWD Sciex Success Story

PRODUCER / DIRECTOR / EDITOR

Turned a deeply technical lab operation (PFAS testing, LCMS instrumentation, water quality compliance) into a story a non-technical audience would actually sit through. Took it from concept through delivery, translating the Orange County Water District's in-house testing capabilities into a clear, human-led narrative. These success stories were sold as a publication package alongside AWWA editorial, making the format a revenue product rather than a marketing cost.

A repeatable format that generated revenue

AWWA: The Role of Water Professionals

SCRIPT / FILM / EDIT

Wrote, filmed, and edited a brand video for the American Water Works Association, turning an association's mission (education, networking, career growth for water professionals) into a compelling narrative that speaks directly to the people doing the work: the water professionals themselves.

03 / Case studies

when something
was about to fail.

01

SmartCredito Puerto Rico Event

Before
5 registrations. Leadership ready to write off the investment, weeks out. (SmartCredito is the Spanish-language brand, not a typo.)
What I did
A Spanish ad tailored to Puerto Rico entrepreneurs in real estate, mortgage, credit repair, tax, or any financial professional wanting to learn more about personal credit, and potentially partnering with SmartCredit.
Result
Sold out within 2 weeks.

02

Annual SmartCredit Conference Tickets

Before
20 tickets sold with roughly a month to go.
What I did
Built and launched a 50%-off campaign against a hard deadline.
Result
75% of the conference sold through that campaign. Eventually sold the conference to full capacity.

03

CreditCon Documentary

Before
Week two on the job. I didn't know the company, the culture, or any of the people I'd be interviewing, and my existing responsibilities kept running alongside it. Two weeks to research, structure, interview and cut a full company culture documentary, then premiere it at CreditCon, a convention my company sponsored.
What I did
Researched, filmed and edited a company culture documentary solo, with zero context, minimal resources, and a very tight deadline.
Result
Premiered on schedule at CreditCon, 14 days from assignment.
