Summary

SEO Analyst with a year and a half of dedicated experience in SEO, working across agency operations and independent client projects, following a year and a half in growth. I work across the three fronts that decide organic visibility today: technical foundation, search-intent content, and presence in generative AI.

I run a portfolio of around 12 e-commerce and service clients on VTEX, Shopify, Nuvemshop, WordPress and Framer. Every deliverable is measured and evaluated to determine next steps based on data and technical grounding.

Beyond the operation, I build what holds the process together: sites in Next.js and Framer, automations in n8n, and agent orchestration. It is what makes it possible to work with speed across multiple fronts at once and measure each of them systemically.
