Alan is an incredibly inspiring and data-driven CMO, whom I had the pleasure of working with for nearly 2 years at NorthRow. Within that time Alan was able to transform NorthRow’s digital marketing capabilities, whilst launching a new website and rebrand. Alan laid down the foundation essential for NorthRow’s growth and more importantly was a fantastic mentor who helped me advance as a marketer and improve professionally. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have worked alongside Alan, as I feel better positioned in my career.

Alan is a great mentor and manager. At previous organizations I've always worked under the leadership of a Creative Director - now, I get to learn the ropes of marketing fundamentals. This is super valuable and I'm thankful for the learning opportunities, wisdom, and thoughtful feedback he shares. Since day one, I've been encouraged to embrace a leadership role and autonomy over my daily tasks. Alan also encourages continued education and embracing new techniques/skills.
