Mara founded Kino Growth after watching enterprise organic programs lose ground to a layer of software they were not measuring. She spent the first half of her career in technical SEO and retrieval engineering, and now leads the agency’s GEO programs — prompt panels, citation graphs, entity work and the content systems that make a brand quotable.

She writes about how models choose their sources, how to measure share-of-answer honestly, and why most “AI SEO” advice is just old SEO with new vocabulary.
