I help growing teams create the operational clarity that lets work move without friction. Over the past 8+ years, I have worked across SaaS, research, and professional services environments, supporting founders, leadership teams, and distributed teams who need reliable execution across projects, clients, and systems. At Sana AI, I spent over 1,000 hours as the team's core coordination partner, managing 20+ concurrent client onboardings, building and maintaining the help center and internal documentation, and becoming the go-to person for process clarity and setup questions. I owned client relationships end to end, from kickoff through go-live, while keeping internal systems current and leadership informed. That is the kind of work I do best: making sure nothing falls through the cracks, that the right people have the right information, and that execution stays consistent even when priorities shift. What I bring to a team: 1. Client and delivery oversight, aligning expectations, tracking progress, and ensuring work reaches measurable outcomes 2. Cross-functional coordination across distributed and async teams 3. SOP development and documentation that teams actually use 4. Operational visibility through dashboards, reporting frameworks, and structured check-ins 5. Onboarding systems that get new clients and team members up to speed without chaos I hold a Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) credential and a Digital Business Manager (DBM) certification covering project management, ops and systems, and team management. Tools: ClickUp, Asana, Jira, Notion, Monday, HubSpot, Zapier, GHL, Google Workspace, Slack. I work best in long-term partnerships with teams that value clarity, calm execution, and consistent delivery over reactive firefighting.
