Fractional SEO Consultant · AI Systems Architect · Founder, Scale With Search

I build search infrastructure for mid-market B2B companies. Not the kind of SEO where you write blog posts and hope for traffic. The kind where you engineer information architecture, deploy AI-native content systems, and build compounding organic acquisition channels that outlast any ad budget.

Background

My path into SEO started through real estate database management. As Inside Sales Database & Client Relations Manager at the Jim Allen Group (Coldwell Banker Howard Perry & Walston), I managed the CRM infrastructure that powered a top-producing real estate team in Raleigh, NC. That role taught me what most SEO consultants never learn: how traffic converts downstream, where leads die in the pipeline, and why clean data matters more than any ranking.

That operational foundation became the basis for Scale With Search, where I now build search systems for B2B companies. The consulting practice grew from a simple observation: mid-market companies ($5M-$50M revenue) face a structural gap. They've outgrown freelancers, can't justify a $140K+ full-time SEO lead, and traditional agencies charge senior rates for junior execution.

Fractional consulting fills that gap. I embed as a senior resource for 10 hours monthly, capped at 5 clients to guarantee execution quality. Every methodology I use is documented publicly through my writing, because if your consultant's value depends on keeping secrets, their value is fragile.

Operating principles

Documentation over mystique

Every framework I use with clients is published in my writing. If a competitor reads it and can implement it themselves, good. The value isn't in the playbook. It's in the judgment of when to deviate from it.

Systems over tactics

A tactic gets you a ranking. A system compounds. I build information architectures, internal linking systems, and content production pipelines that keep generating returns after the engagement ends.

Capped clients, senior execution

Maximum 5 retainer clients at once. No account managers. No junior associates doing the work while you pay senior rates. Every deliverable comes from the person you signed the contract with.

AI-native, not AI-curious

I deploy local LLMs for content production, build custom AI memory architectures for client teams, and use AI agent orchestration in my own workflow. Not experimenting with ChatGPT. Building production systems.
