CXO Strategy · Executive Networking · Los Angeles

Most CMOs bring you a deck. I bring you the room.

I am a chief marketing officer, the founder of Golf Execs, and the host of Club Speed. The strategy is the same work every good CMO does. The difference is that I can put you in front of the people it is meant to reach.

What I do

CXO strategy, and the access to execute it.

Three engagements. Most run six to twelve months — long enough to build something that works, short enough that you are not carrying an executive salary while you find out.

01

Fractional CMO

I sit in the leadership seat. Positioning, pricing, channel strategy, hiring the team you will eventually own, and a reporting line that tells you honestly whether any of it is working.

02

CXO advisory

For founders and boards who need senior marketing judgement on a specific decision — a raise, a pivot, a new segment, a category claim you cannot defend yet.

03

AI consulting

Where AI actually belongs in your go-to-market and where it does not. The tooling, the workflow and the operating model underneath it, built with the executive team rather than handed to them.

The best conversations in business don't happen in boardrooms.

The unfair advantage

Golf is the room. Not the product.

I founded Golf Execs because the introductions that actually move a business do not happen on a sales call. They happen over four hours on a course, where nobody is selling and everyone runs something.

That community is now a media platform, a podcast, a run of charity tournaments and a calendar of executive networking days. It is also the reason a client hires me instead of a consultancy: the strategy comes with access.

Most recently Golf Execs served as official media partner for the Tee It Up for Pali Golf Classic, raising funds to rebuild Palisades Charter Elementary after the Palisades Fire — alongside the Caruso Family Foundation, Genesis and New York Life.

Who I work best with
Founders and CEOs with real revenue, a product that works, and no senior marketing leader in the building.
What month one looks like
An honest read on what is actually broken, the two or three moves that matter, and a number you can judge me by.
What I will not do
Promise a result I cannot deliver, or invent a case study to win the work. If I am the wrong fit I will say so on the first call.
Where I work
Los Angeles, and anywhere in the United States worth flying to.

Background

I have sat on both sides of the table.

I started inside the networks — ABC, NBC and TMZ — where the job was holding attention at scale and being able to prove it. At NBC.com that meant product development — building and shipping the thing itself, not just the campaign around it. That is still the job; only the channels changed. I have since built demand for Runway Magazine in Los Angeles and for a long list of fashion, e-commerce and consumer brands.

I have been a global executive and CMO for a Formula 1 simulator company, selling a premium engineered product to an unforgiving audience. I co-founded Pharm Doc, a telehealth SaaS business, and we sold it.

Today I run Tack Media, a Los Angeles marketing agency, and I host Club Speed. The agency gives me a team. The show gives me the room. What that means for you is that I am not a consultant who hands over a deck — I have carried the number, and I build the thing that hits it.
