CRM & Lifecycle Marketing

I read language before data.
The journey starts there.

CRM strategy, multichannel automation and lifecycle design that turn data into relationships, and relationships into revenue.

About

Who I am

A CRM specialist who came out of language, not analytics. The order matters. Before the dashboards, before the automation logic, came years of reading text like a system: what a word promises, what a sentence hides, why one message converts and the one beside it dies in the inbox. Behavior is language too. And CRM, in the end, is the work of listening to that language at scale.

I've done this end to end for eight-plus years. At Fênix Educação, I rebuilt the CRM operation from scratch for a 50K-lead base: lifecycle logic, behavioral lead scoring, SLAs between Marketing and Sales. It drove +20% enrollment, open rate from ~2% to ~25%, +35% CTR and 30% fewer unqualified leads. I run the whole stack, RD Station, Mautic, n8n, Make and Zapier, multichannel across email, WhatsApp, push and SMS, with the health metrics (LTV, Churn, NRR) on a Power BI dashboard anyone at the table can read. I don't ship setup. I ship journeys that hold up in the numbers.

The place I'm sharpest is the crossing: brand becoming operation, operation becoming a relationship you can measure. Without picking a side. Because picking a side is where most operations lose the thread.

How I work

I drive impact by designing lifecycle, where brand vision meets data operation

Creativity and data don't live on opposite sides. One reads desire, the other reads behavior, and the journey that works comes from both in the same move. I do more than write copy that converts: I study, measure and optimize on a loop. Strategy that lasts doesn't run on intuition. It runs on proof.

Challenges are raw material to me. I take them on, learn, rewrite until the operation stands. My experience crosses journey design, segmentation, retention, multichannel automation and the stitching between brand and data, between marketing and sales.

Working with me is continuous improvement with numbers you can measure. Growth without diluting who the brand is.
