Inference is a fractional marketing partner for early-stage startups who need senior thinking, without the senior hire — so your marketing compounds.
Why Inference
I've led marketing end-to-end at startups like Pitch, SoundCloud, and Grover — from brand and content to growth and hiring. Now I partner with founders to build the same foundations at their companies.
Great brands aren't a luxury for later — they're a growth lever from day one. I help you build one without breaking stride.
Rigorous enough to run the numbers but experienced enough to know when to ignore them.
I build my own products, I've been at startups from day one, and I'm AI-native. You're hiring for results, not strategy docs.
Working Together
Each engagement is different. Here's what that usually looks like.
Embedded 2-3 Days/Week
Senior marketing leadership for founders who need it now but aren't ready to hire full-time. I embed with your team to build strategy, test what works, and get marketing running. When you're ready for a permanent VP, you'll know exactly who to hire and I can help you find them.
Two-Week Deep Dive Sprint
A focused two-week sprint where I dive into your biggest marketing questions on growth, positioning, or AI-native ops. You'll get an honest audit and a concrete action plan.
1:1 Advisory
A thinking partner for founders navigating marketing decisions. A sparring partner for marketing leaders building their careers. Direct but authentic advice from someone who's been there before.
With Trusted Partners
When it's time to bring marketing in-house, I help you find the right people — from sourcing senior operators to vetting leadership candidates — with my network of trusted recruiting partners.
Dedicated One-Off Sessions
Training for your team on the most misunderstood topics in marketing including growth loops, product marketing fundamentals, and AI-native GTM. Built around your team's actual challenges, not generic frameworks.
