AdWords & Analytics certified, a jack of all trades, master of few. Former Director of Marketing for Globe Runner SEO and Lead SEO at Online Performance Marketing, I’ve spent the past 5 years working with everything from local service businesses to International brands, helping to drive business goals and align marketing spend with ROI and ROAS.

However, the role which I most cherish is that of husband to a wife way out of my league and father to three kids that continue to amaze me.

Kailie Dawn
Talk: Using Uber to Gain Financial Independence and My Own Customer Base
Title: Driver
About: Kailie is a single mom to three kids and faced a choice when she realized she wasn’t making enough money, how would she do it? Kailie turned to driving for Uber as so many have in recent years to earn a little extra income. Since then she’s purchased a new car, started driving Uber full time and turned to digital platforms to help her build a loyal base of dozens of passengers. Using a mixture of digital savvy and creative ingenuity Kailie’s Uber isn’t a typical ride from point A to point B, she turns each ride into an experience for her riders with props, snacks, and a great personality. Kailie uses Text messages, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to build her digital audience in hopes of winning some over as regular customers. When she isn’t busy driving for herself via Uber or being a great mom Kailie can be seen feeding the homeless of Dallas.
