About

I'm an SEO specialist and web builder working across the full stack of organic growth: keyword architecture, technical audits, on-page optimisation, and link-building campaigns that move the needle on competitive rankings.

At Augustus Media in Dubai, I owned the complete SEO strategy for Lovin.co — scaling content operations across 22 city-level markets, building landing pages that became the site's top organic traffic driver, and automating reporting pipelines between Google Search Console, Looker Studio, and Slack.

Outside client work, I build things: video downloader web apps, a suite of Chrome extensions, and German web utilities. I'm currently pursuing a research degree in Computer and Systems Engineering at Technische Universität Ilmenau.
