hi, I’m mase.

I’m a marketing professional living in the Driftless region of Wisconsin. I specialize in macro and product photography, web and graphic design, creating content and being a dad.

I’ve been doing the work I do for over ten years now, and it’s always felt cohesive to me, but I’ve never built a digital space where it could all co-exist together.

I’m at a point now where I want to live a more integrated life and do more intentional work with resonant people.

I also want to connect, share and create for myself and on my own terms, not Meta’s. That’s why I’ve built this site. And I’m glad you’re here.

The timeline to now

April 2013 - August 2015

Where it all began. I moved through the company from CX Manager to Marketing Coordinator, worked with awesome NFL partners and became a Midwest Google Business Leader.

August 2015 - May 2021

I took what I learned to Sat Nam Yoga, revamped their website, CRM strategy, launched an app, a healing arts studio and teacher training program. Building community was at the center of it all.
