SEO freelancer/consultant. Mom to a human boy and a bunch of adopted animals; wife to a PPC guy. I enjoy running, reading (fantasy, sci-fi, mystery, romance), Nintendo, cooking, gardening, and animals. I care about mental health, equity, and kindness.
And, yes, he wears a collar. Pro tip: if you can find a creative way to label stuffed animals that go everywhere with your kid, it can create a lot of peace of mind. My son was a big fan of his "Puppy Doggy" having a collar like a real dog.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I should see if they have that one. Wouldn’t surprise me.

Today, I deactivated 3 plugins of his in favor of one that does all the same things.

I wish I knew how many lines of JavaScript I killed with that one power move. But I know it was just drops in the bucket.

Understatement of the year. They asked me why a specific SKU wasn't performing in organic search (which...that question is a whole other issue) and it finally gave me the inroad to discuss bringing in a WP site health expert.

This is so much more than SEO.

YES BUSINESS ETHICS. You love to see it.

One of the best little treasures of our industry is getting to witness the ribbing that you and @rustybrick.com give each other. I feel like I'm sitting down to beers or something with industry friends when the banter starts.

Privatized healthcare funding is such a con. Idk if single payer is attainable here in our lifetimes, but we’re HAS to be reform in the insurance industry. It’s such a racket.

At Hallmark, it was for me. We did so much cool stuff, even if there were hurdles. My big clients when I was agency-side were less rewarding.

There’s trade-offs no matter what, though. I’m where I am meant to be now, though.

Yep. I miss the resources of big companies, but I don’t miss the red tape. I could do a lot of cool stuff, BUT I had to have approval for it, and get product management on board, and get it prioritized, and on and on.
