A marketing manager, now a client of ours, was struggling to do her job with limited tech skills, overwhelming data, while being strapped for time. She was frustrated, felt undervalued and overwhelmed, and was angry that she had to handle it all.

Then she started delegating some parts of SEO, a few ad campaigns, the website, some technical and design tasks, and a bit of the analytics to O8. The list continued to grow, as did the results from it all, including our involvement in overall marketing strategy.

Now she can do everything she wanted to, with the skills she has, while looking amazing to management and better justifying the work she does...and she doesn’t hate her job anymore; she loves it.

That's the dream my company delivers to our clients. We are good, honest, hard-working Minnesotans who want to make the day-to-day for marketers a fruitful, less-stressful, more productive experience. Learn more at https://www.o8.agency/.

In my career, I have built websites for famous artists like Justin Bieber and Mariah Carey, led a team as CTO at a social network startup company, co-presented at Stanford and the International Society for Neuronal Regulation Conference on an EEG study in consciousness, travelled to Tokyo for data center network security assessments, worked on world-class e-commerce software as a software engineer, and provided Drupal expertise for Estee Lauder and their many international brands.

I grew up with the web, starting my first web design company at the age of 16, and O8 in 2010. At this point I have been in the industry for over 20 years. I have a degree in Economics from Macalester College, continuing education at the University of Minnesota in Biological Psychology, and I currently study neuromarketing, digital psychology, and persuasion at the CXL Institute.

I speak 7 languages and have a background in the arts and humanities that balances out my business and scientific sides. During spare moments I travel, learn foreign languages, create local community, sing, play piano, DJ, dance, read, write, cook, and spend time with wonderful friends.
