• Lifecycle & CRM – Design segmentation, personalization, and automation journeys that maximize conversion, engagement, and loyalty.
• Brand & Storytelling – Position the company as the category-defining leader in hair-regrowth technology through compelling, customer-centric narratives.
• Content & Community – Oversee content strategy, UGC, creator collaborations, and community programs to drive advocacy and organic growth.

• Proven mastery of performance channels and funnel optimization; hands-on with Meta Ads, Google Ads, GA4, Klaviyo (or similar), and major e-commerce platforms (Shopify/WooCommerce).
• Strong command of CRO, A/B testing, subscription, and retention mechanics.
• Data-driven yet customer-obsessed; comfortable turning insights into bold creative bets.
• Leadership track record: recruiting, coaching, and scaling cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments.
