Bio

For around 8 years, I have worked full-time for various small, medium and large companies, within the field of digital marketing. Whether it’s in-house or agency side, I have helped companies to grow their online visibility and conversion.

Nowadays, I run own my business IgniteRock, where I help entrepreneurs and small businesses to maximise the potential of their WordPress sites to grow their online visibility, increase their audience engagements and encourage conversions.

As well as blogging on the site, I am also the host of The IgniteRock Podcast, where I interview inspiring individuals who runs a WordPress site. This is where I talk to them to find out more on how they have done it and to prove to the listeners that they too can create an amazing online presence using WordPress.

As I am based in Edinburgh, I am a member of the local meetup and regularly attend the monthly meetup.

During WordCamp Edinburgh 2017, I was a co-organiser of the event. After the event has finished, I will be the lead organiser of the next two WordCamp Edinburgh.
