OUR
STORY

I started Optimize Local after spending more than 20 years in marketing, hospitality, and digital strategy, watching small businesses struggle to compete online. I’ve run restaurants, managed teams, and built campaigns for national brands, but the most rewarding work has always been helping local businesses get found, get chosen, and grow. Over the years, I’ve become a Google Local Guide with more than 7 million views on my photos, proof that the right visibility creates real results.

Now I use that same mix of hands-on experience and cutting-edge tools to bring local SEO, AI automation, and smart analytics to businesses that don’t have time to keep up with the tech race. Whether it’s optimizing a Google Business Profile, automating lead follow-up, or building a custom AI solution, my goal is simple: turn views into visitors, and clicks into customers. Optimize Local isn’t just about marketing—it’s about giving local businesses the edge they need to win.
