I’m excited to announce my new venture: CMG.

I’m excited to announce my new venture: CMG.

I stepped away from agency life in 2019, and AI is what pulled me back.

I've always loved the same thing: working with emerging brands and accelerating their results. AI brought that energy back, and made it possible at a level that wasn't achievable before.

CMG is an AI-Native, end-to-end growth partner for ambitious businesses, from emerging brands to established operators. Strategy, AI engineering, performance media, creative, digital experience, and retention, run by one integrated team.

Most agencies sell you a service and hand the work over a wall. We operate differently: agency structure, AI-operator mindset. We diagnose what’s holding growth back, deploy across the full funnel, and compound the gains over time.

CMG is also home to AI Wrangler, inspiring the ethos of AI through media, education, and AI support. If you’ve followed AI Wrangler, this is the bigger picture it lives inside.

We’ve partnered with leading AI and ecosystem providers, and we’ll be expanding partnerships rapidly over the next few months.

If you're an ambitious brand ready to grow, let's talk.
