Hi there, I am a Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) Specialist. Ever since I was young, I have had a passion for statistics and probabilities.
I still remember reviewing different scenarios and potential outcomes from everything from snooker to football.
This passion carried me through my education in Math, Science and IT. I now study languages, algorithms, statistical models, all with pretty much the same fascination that drove me when I was younger.
I have a yearning for knowledge, and I am always ready to learn something new. So, now, this passion remains with me in the SEO industry.
There's undoubtedly so much more to learn and many more problems to solve, so I will never stop growing!
Specialities: SEO, Google Sheets, Content Optimisation, GPT-3, OpenAI, NLP
Academic: Programming, Algorithms, Analytics.

With the web continually advancing I believe it's essential to have an excellent technical foundation and knowledge of how the web works, this dramatically improves how I operate and allows me to implement more advanced A/B tests and keep up with the latest algorithms and changes to search. My appetite to learn new things and passion for statistics and data have helped me gain the skills I have and continue steadily improving my techniques.

Interests

Apart from studying and learning everything I can about SEO, I also like to have a passion for statistics; I like studying predictive analytics, which works very well with SEO and Digital Marketing. I enjoy reading and listening to audiobooks about various topics from psychology and productivity to health and fitness in my free time.

I am a huge advocate for remote working as you can build your own office just as you like it. Saving hours of time and stress that comes from commuting and it's much more environmentally friendly, I have a standing desk which is becoming harder to request in a new hot desk part remote environment. I also feel it shows complete trust between employer and employee. When you work for several clients as we do at a performance marketing agency unless you are with your client, you are in effect always working remotely anyway.
