About Me.
Professional SEO Consultant
I first began working with WordPress around 2004 just after it was first released. I had recognized the value of domain names in a secondary market. I leased a dedicated server at that time and began to purchase many domain names, often using WordPress to create a website around each purchased domain name. The website would make the domain purchase more appealing to secondary buyers, and I experienced a lot of success doing this as a side gig to my primary job of working in the film industry as a marketing expert.
After I left the film industry in 2010 to pursue creating my own event planning business in Las Vegas, I found it necessary to teach myself Search Engine Optimization. I learned white, gray, and black hat techniques and found that I enjoyed ranking my business websites more than I did the business itself. I dissolved the event planning business after about six years of good success, then moved back home to Dallas.
My brother and I went to our first escape room soon after I arrived in Dallas, and we both agreed we wanted to start our own. I used my website design and SEO skills to our benefit, and even taught myself Arduino coding, some telephony, and additional technologies that helped me to design games for our new venture. Due to my SEO skills, we were soon to the point that we were looking to hire additional staff when COVID hit and, eventually, killed the business entirely.
I then took on the role of General Manager of a new kids indoor amusement center and worked to improve the technology of this new business, as well. I improved the website and assisted with SEO for this tough business during COVID. While I did not stay with this business for long (alas, it was losing money all because of the pandemic), my accomplishments were noticeable and timely.
It was during this period that I began consulting as a side business and eventually helped multiple businesses rank on Google locally, as well as improve their onsite, offsite, and technical SEO. I've taken on dentists, plumbers, specialty shops, assisted living communities, and more. With more than 75 previous successful clients, my story did not end there. In fact, it's only just getting started.
Get in contact with me if you're ready to get your story moving, as well.
Thank you for reading, and I hope to work with you soon!

Frequently Asked Questions.
Absolutely. In fact, I already have a full time job that I love working for a non-profit and have no intention of leaving there. However, I am often left with plenty of free time in the evenings and on weekends. What better way to keep doing what I enjoy?
I’m what you might call a man who wears many hats. I always had an interest in learning new skills in technology, so I would frequently learn something, then move on to something else, which in turn would move me into even more interests. I’m really just a nerd sponge at heart.
I can’t. I’m just one person. Luckily, I’ve been blessed enough that I have the freedom to pick and choose who I wish to work with. And it has been my experience that those who are just starting off with an idea tend to not be a very good fit for my schedule or skills. I always look for someone who already has a real business in full swing. The best clients are the ones who have been at it for at least a year or two, minimum, and tend to just need some guidance to get on track, and then could use regular periodic maintenance.
There is honestly no answer to this. Every business is unique, every market is different, and Google algorithms change constantly. But any good SEO consultant will be honest when they say it could take anywhere from 90-180 days before seeing any good, measurable improvement to your website’s performance. And, even then, regular maintenance will always be required to stay current and healthy.
Results? No. And anyone who says they can is trying to sell you something. What I CAN guarantee is that, if you follow my recommendations, the search engines will like you and your site a lot more. Meaning, the algorithms will see that you deserve better placement on their SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages). This, in turn, will get you more clicks and better leads. I can also guarantee that if you follow my recommendations, you will perform better s far as rich snippets are concerned which also will help to convert more clicks and leads. The idea is simple: Search engine algorithms want you to provide SOMETHING – and if you provide it, you will be rewarded.
