Bio
Ren Costantini
I had the pleasure of working on several accounts with Ollie during his time at Zero Gravity Marketing. His knowledge of PPC, SEO, and overall digital marketing prowess helped propel each client to success. Aside from Ollie's skill set, he is a breath of fresh air to have on any team. Ollie is simply a gentleman and a scholar. Anyone would be lucky to have Ollie as a colleague, friend, and employee. Ollie is always providing exceptional service without compromising his optimistic and friendly demeanor. I am certain that whatever role Ollie takes on he will be successful.
