AI marketing, engineered.
I build the AI systems behind modern marketing: generative-AI content with built-in compliance review, multi-channel attribution, and automation that takes recurring work off the team. Computer Science background and five years of software engineering at Cubic Transportation, applied across marketing leadership at Wealth Enhancement Group, Novadontics, and Nokkomo Mints.
Three lanes of creative output.
One sample from each lane: AI-generated, self-produced, and work I’ve directed with the Nokkomo intern team.

How I work.
Most marketing functions are bottlenecked on operations, not strategy. My approach rebuilds that infrastructure so the strategy can land: measurably, repeatably, with less per-unit cost.
- 01Weeks 1–2Discovery
Interview sales, customer success, and recent customers. Map every paid channel, lifecycle stage, and report. Identify the single highest-leverage bottleneck.
- 02Weeks 3–6Rebuild
Unified attribution, reconciled lifecycle stages, automation in place of manual handoff. The executive team begins receiving a consistent weekly report.
- 03Weeks 7–12Operating cadence
Weekly leadership review installed, AI-assisted content pipeline live, paid media reorganized against the new attribution model, first hire on board.
Software engineering rigor, applied to modern marketing.
I’m Daniel, an AI marketing leader and marketing engineer based in North County San Diego. CS from the University of San Diego (2018–2022), then five years of systems engineering at Cubic Transportation in Java, Python, and C++. I now apply that engineering background to marketing operations: building AI-augmented systems for attribution, content production, and CRM automation.
Today I run AI marketing automation, GenAI content, and attribution at Wealth Enhancement Group, previously served as Director of Marketing at Novadontics (May 2025 – Jan 2026; 3 brands, reporting to CEO), and serve as co-founder/CMO at Nokkomo Mints (four-channel DTC; ACOS 81%→38% in 2024, 24 interns across 8 universities, B2B wholesale today).
On the side I run HAZE (registered TM), creative brand work that keeps me sharp on the consumer side.
