Pure Visibility Teachers and Coaches

Jessica Hullman, Analytics Muse
B.A. Comparative Studies magna cum laude, Ohio State University, M.F.A. Writing and Poetics Naropa University, and M.S.I. Information Analysis and Retrieval, University of Michigan
"Divergent" is perhaps the most appropriate term to describe Jessica's skillset, but in the best possible way! While analytics have always been her strength, she was formerly a writer of both creative and critical work, with considerable teaching experience. Her love of quantitative analysis called her to learn to program, which culminated in a degree focused on data mining and visualization. Former employers include the University of Michigan, where she worked as an SEO consultant and analyst, in addition to teaching writing and literature courses.

Daniel O'Neil, Alchemist & Analyst
B.A., cum laude, Cognitive Science, Vassar; and M.S.,
Psychology, University of Michigan
Daniel prides himself as an alchemist who discovers the hidden gold in any business environment. Since starting at Pure Visibility in 2006 he has helped over twenty companies make high-impact changes that improved their bottom line. He learned the value of metrics, testing, and user profiles as an analyst in the publishing, financial services, and pharmaceutical industries, and then decided to apply them to broader needs across markets. Daniel’s approach centers on the personal and market-based factors that bring people to visit a site, consider its content, and use it to satisfy a need. His primary goal is to increase conversion rates by identifying user profiles that a company values, then reach those profiles through search engine marketing, site optimization, and marketing copy.
