Webmaster

Hello, my name is Miles

And I’m a fucking webmaster.

For the past 15 years I’ve been in the weeds doing web development, SEO, and paid media.

During that time I have led teams of writers, designers, account managers, analysts, — and occasional breakdancers and stunt drivers. I pitched new design concepts to leadership, planned the information architecture, and then rebuilt, re-branded, migrated, and launched on-time and under budget. I managed ad campaigns, pushed buttons, and pulled levers that filled pipelines and put butts in seats.

I have a less buzzword-filled background in graphic design, photography, and video production – but it comes in handy.

Published Work

I’ve had the honor of seeing my work printed in textbooks and on magazine covers and billboards from San Diego to South Africa.

Photography

Photography started as a teenage hobby for me that turned into a freelance gig doing photos for local metal bands. This built a portfolio of work that led to my first full-time marketing position as a university photographer.

Since then I’ve started shooting weddings, concerts, models, families, landscapes, corporate headshots, and even a few natural disasters.

I live in Chicago’s northwest suburbs, where I mostly take pictures of my dogs, ride motorcycles, and annoy my lovely wife.
