Behind every creative person, every small and growing business, is an Alfred. There comes a point in the development of every business where if an organizational overhaul doesn't take place, scaling isn't possible. That's where I come in. You might know exactly what you want, or you might have a general sense of unease. Many business owners know there are things that can be done better, but they aren't sure where to start and don't have the time to figure it out. I've spent years honing a carefully curated (but extensive) list of skills by working with small business teams and as a freelancer. These various experiences have given me invaluable insights into different industries, processes, tools and departments. I've had my hands in dozens of different projects and this has allowed me to analyze businesses and develop custom solutions. I've also worked really hard to become acclimated to as much technology as possible. I'm certified in Asana, Notion, Make.com, Quickbooks, Trainual and Gorgias. I'm expert-level in Clickup, Trello, Monday, Processstreet, Jira, Confluence, Hubspot, Hubstaff, Harvest, Front, and many more. Some of my specialty areas include: - Day to day direct executive support, project management or operations management - Acting as team communication leader and project manager ensuring efficient information sharing - Process development - Analyzing, streamlining and automating workflows - Tool recommendations, data migration, set up and training - Financials (Quickbooks, data transfers, budgets, action plans) I am a certified Quickbooks Pro Advisor! I am certified to help you optimize your usage of Quickbooks. - I specialize in choosing, setting up and executing project management software. I am well versed in all major options. I am also an Asana Together Certified Pro and Notion Certified. - Developing, launching and leading initiatives regarding efficiency, organization, team building, marketing, hiring, and more. - Resource management including HR, payroll and employee engagement - Long term goal planning, and breaking down those goals into achievable projects with specific steps and due dates - Putting out fires, reducing bottlenecks, and keeping things from falling through the cracks Certified in: Asana, Notion, Gorgias, Make.com, Trainual and Quickbooks Experienced in: Airtable Calendly Canva Clickup Clockify Confluence Dubsado Etsy Google Data Studio Google Products Harvest Hector Hexnode Highlevel Hive Hootsuite Hubspot Hubstaff Insightly Loomly Monday.com Office/Microsoft Products Paymo Post Affiliate Pro Processstreet Reclaim Shopify Sortly Sunsama Todoist Trello Various form tools (google forms, tidyform, notionforms, etc.) Verious email marketing tools (Mailchimp, infusionsoft, constant contact, keap, etc.) WordPress Wrike Zendesk Zoho And even more industry specific software (NutriAdmin, ServiceNow, ConnectWise, etc.)

AI Engineering Lead & Full-Stack Builder | 10+ Years | AWS Accelerator | Anthropic Built with Claude Most people hire either a business consultant who doesn't code or an engineer who can't translate. I'm the one who bridges both - fluent in your business problem and in the architecture to solve it. I've shipped AI systems that cut 80% off planning cycles, processed 90% faster with zero dependencies, and served 100K+ users in production. I don't prototype and hand off. I own outcomes. 1 of 500 selected from 13,000+ applicants for Anthropic's Built with Claude 2026. AWS Impact Accelerator alumni. What I've shipped: → forwward — Built in 7 days at the Anthropic hackathon. A spec-driven autonomous coding agent that takes client meetings and Slack threads and opens a reviewable GitHub PR - requirements, PRD, TDD, implementation, and tests. Zero human touch. Like Cursor, but fully autonomous. → Project Solve — AI agent for capital energy project planning. Reduced FEL cycle time by 80%. Working prototype in front of real users in 4 weeks. → EngageIQx — Multi-modal agentic analytics system: 4+ specialized agents handling ETL, schema mapping, churn prediction, and AI recommendations. 90% faster data processing, zero external dependencies. → Instant Cash-Out at Homebase — Ruby on Rails + Plaid, same-day earned wage access for 100K+ hourly workers in production. What I build: AI Agents & RAG Systems — LangChain/LangGraph pipelines, tool-use agents, evaluators, guardrails, custom knowledge bases. Production-grade, not demos. Voice AI — Retell AI + Vapi inbound/outbound flows for lead qualification, bookings, and support. Orchestrated via n8n or Make. Full-Stack Web/Mobile — Next.js, React Native, FastAPI, Node.js, Postgres/Supabase/Mongo. Deployed on Vercel, Railway, AWS Lambda. Fintech — Stripe, Plaid, Braintree, KYC/AML compliance, encrypted storage, payout systems, reconciliation dashboards. Agentic Workflows — Multi-agent orchestration, spec-driven coding agents, MCP integrations, workflow automation at scale. Stack (what I actually use daily): AI: Claude API, LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Vercel AI SDK Automation: n8n, Make, Retell AI, Vapi, Composio Web: Next.js, React, FastAPI, Node, Postgres, Supabase Backend: Python, Go Hosting: GCP, Firebase, Render, Vercel, Railway, AWS (Lambda/API Gateway/Bedrock) Prototyping: Claude code— when speed is the deliverable How I work: Rapid prototype → defensible architecture → observability + tests → clean handoff. You get honest tradeoffs on cost, latency, and reliability — plus documentation that doesn't require me to explain it. Best fit: founders and technical teams who need someone to own the AI layer AND the surrounding product without hand-holding. If you want to move fast without accumulating technical debt, we'll get along. One honest thing: If your project needs a committee, I'm not it. I work best with decision-makers who know what they want to learn and want to learn it fast.

You've built real expertise. Real results. Real demand for what you know. But the moment you try to turn that knowledge into a scalable product—everything slows down. Not because you lack ideas. But because building a course, funnel, platform, and launch strategy requires skills you don't have time to learn. That's where I come in. Who I Am: the expand lab. com for more info :) I'm Hannah, founder of Expand Lab—an ex-Silicon Valley product manager who now helps coaches, educators, and consultants turn their expertise into revenue-generating product ecosystems. I don't just "build courses." I architect products the way PMs at top tech companies do: Clear transformation first Mapped user journey Systems built to scale Infrastructure that lasts What I've Built: ✅ $1M+ generated for clients through courses, coaching, and digital products ✅ 60+ Kajabi projects (course builds, migrations, funnel optimization) ✅ 20+ podcast launches (strategy, production, distribution) ✅ Multiple 6-figure course launches (organic—no ads required) ✅ 80+ experts who went from overwhelmed solopreneurs to confident CEOs What Makes Me Different: Most freelancers execute tasks. I think like a product manager. That means: I don't just build what you ask for—I diagnose what you actually need I design ecosystems, not isolated pieces (course + funnel + email + platform—all connected) I optimize for long-term scale, not quick launches that fall apart I combine strategic rigor with human warmth (no pressure, no BS, just results) What I Offer: 1. Full Product Ecosystem Build (100-Day Signature Offer) End-to-end productization of your expertise: Product discovery & strategy Course architecture (Kajabi, Skool, GHL) Funnel & automation build Brand & messaging cohesion Launch strategy & execution Best for: Experts making $8-15k/month who are ready to scale without burning out. 2. Kajabi Expertise Platform builds, migrations, optimizations, and troubleshooting. I've built 30+ Kajabi sites—I know the platform inside and out. 3. Video Production & Podcast Launches Full-service production for courses, social content, and podcast strategy. 20+ successful podcast launches. Video editing, repurposing, and distribution. 4. Social Media Management & Ads Strategy Content strategy, social media management, and paid ad campaigns that actually convert. I help you stay visible without living on social media. Who I Work Best With: ✅ Coaches, educators, consultants with proven expertise ✅ Founders making $8k-$15k/month (or more) looking to scale ✅ Experts who value strategy + systems over quick hacks ✅ People who want sustainable growth without sacrificing their sanity Not a fit if: ✗ You're just starting out (no audience, no proof of concept) ✗ You want "overnight results" or viral shortcuts ✗ You're looking for the cheapest option (I'm not bargain-bin, I'm premium execution) Let's Talk: If you're ready to turn your expertise into a product that works without you, let's connect. I'll ask about your business, diagnose where the gaps are, and tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit. No pitch. No pressure. Just clarity.

Most founders hire ops people who make slide decks. I make P&Ls. Some founders find that I am too direct, too pushy, too determined and my goals for the team is too big. I am not for everyone. Stop reading here if you are content at where you are. Keep reading if you want radical change. I'm a fractional COO. My job is to take you from "I'm the bottleneck in my own business" to "the team handled it without me." Last gig: I ran ops for Dr. Ewoma, a UK doctor turned beauty founder. Twelve months later her profit was up roughly 1,700%. I closed the brand partnerships (L'Oréal, Charlotte Tilbury, plus about 90% of the prestige and DTC names at Sephora and Target), built and managed the team, and flew to Korea, France, and LA to find the right manufacturer for her body care line. We signed the term sheet and MOQ before I left. THE REST OF THE RECEIPT - 4x revenue at Growth Magic in 12 months across a portfolio of founder clients. - 1,300% sales lift in 2 months at HomeCredit Shenzhen as Chief of Staff to the CSO and COO. - 42x a campaign target at Sterling Talon for non-profit and legal clients - 1,600% expansion in under 2 years at my own investment firm. - $40M new-construction sales in year one at Knight Frank Melbourne, top 3 consultant in Australia nationally. - 18+ years operating across SaaS, real estate, blockchain, beauty, and AI, in 8 countries on 4 continents. - Fluent Mandarin, foundational Spanish, working French, Cantonese, Taiwanese. I also build. GM Sidekick is my AI accountability app, live on the App Store and Google Play. I ship sites on Lovable, prototype on Replit, and write API documentation at a dev tools company on the side. AI-native in the "I actually ship things" sense, not the LinkedIn-buzzword sense. HOW I WORK (the part most ops people won't tell you) - I do hard things on purpose. Muay Thai since 2018, BJJ since 2025, cold plunge every morning. Hard conversations don't faze me. - I ask the unflattering questions in week one. - I care more about your P&L than your feelings. (Kindly.) - I move fast because I've done this in too many industries to need a 90-day "discovery phase." HIRE ME IF - You're a founder and you're the bottleneck. Your business can't grow until you get out of your own way. - You need an operator who can negotiate a manufacturing contract on Tuesday, rebuild a comp plan on Wednesday, and pitch a brand partner on Thursday. - You want someone who runs things, not someone who makes decks about running things. - You're in beauty, DTC, SaaS, AI tools, real estate ops, or anything with messy supply chain and partnership work. DON'T HIRE ME IF - You want someone who tells you what you want to hear. - You want a 5-hour-a-week strategy advisor. I get my hands dirty. Send me a note about what's actually broken. I'll tell you straight whether I'm the right fit.
