Jeremy McDonald
Founder and AI Strategist
Jeremy built his career leading award-winning teams across SEO, Search and Social, scaling Kaizen to a 50-person agency before recognising the seismic shift AI would bring to marketing.
Rather than watching from the sidelines, he went deep: earned a certification in AI Solutions Architecture, rapidly deployed AI across live campaigns, and started sharing what actually works on stage. We Are Pioneers was founded to answer the question nobody else would: how do marketing teams actually use AI to improve their work?
Today he takes an AI-first approach to everything, from building with Claude Code to deploying custom AI solutions, and runs the 70/30 model that balances client delivery with exploratory R&D.
