As businesses grow, operations become more complex. Priorities compete, projects lose momentum, communication breaks down, and founders spend more time coordinating work than driving growth.
I help startups, SaaS companies, and founder-led businesses bring structure to operations, improve project delivery, and build execution systems that keep teams aligned, accountable, and moving forward.
I am a PMPยฎ-certified Business Operations & Project Management professional with 13+ years of experience supporting startups and founder-led businesses across the USA, India, UAE, Japan, and Brazil. I specialize in business operations, project delivery, operational workflows, and execution systems that help startups, SaaS businesses, and founder-led companies improve visibility, accountability, and predictable delivery.
๐น Results Iโve delivered:
โข Reduced missed deadlines by 40โ60% after implementing structured delivery processes.
โข Built and led 10+ distributed cross-functional teams
โข Achieved 80% success rate in building delivery-ready engineering teams
โข Implemented operational systems within 3โ6 weeks
I typically step in when:
โข Projects are slipping and no one owns delivery
โข Teams are working, but output isnโt predictable
โข Founders are stuck in day-to-day execution
โข Thereโs no clear system for managing work, people, or priorities
๐นHow I Help:
โข Operational frameworks, workflows, SOPs, and execution systems
โข Business operations & project delivery
โข KPI dashboards, reporting, and operational cadence
โข Team management, hiring, and accountability systems
โข Cross-functional communication across founders, teams, and clients
โข Process automation, workflow optimization, and AI-enabled operations
๐นExecution & Accountability:
I build practical operating systems that improve execution, strengthen accountability, and create visibility across teams so work gets completed consistentlyโnot just planned.
๐น Best fit:
โข SaaS & technology businesses
โข Founder-led businesses
โข Digital agencies & service businesses
โข Teams facing operational or delivery challenges
โข Growing businesses building scalable operations

Expert-Vetted Business Operations Consultant โ top 1% on Upwork, 100% Job Success, $500K+ earned across 55+ contracts. If your strategy is clear but execution isn't, that's exactly what I fix: I turn messy processes, half-adopted tools (ClickUp, Monday, Asana), and unclear accountability into a simple operating system your team actually follows โ ownership + cadence + dashboards + tool discipline.
What I do (strategic โ tactical โ operational)
- Strategy-to-execution roadmaps โ what to do first, what to ignore, what to fix
- PMO-lite governance โ cadence, RACI, decision rights, prioritization, exec visibility
- Business process improvement โ Lean/Six Sigma mindset: bottlenecks, cycle time, rework
- Workflow design + build โ ClickUp, Monday, Asana, Wrike, Smartsheet, Jira
- SOPs + process documentation + enablement โ training, adoption, handover
- Dashboards + KPI visibility โ Power BI, Looker Studio, Google Sheets
- Automation + integrations โ Zapier, Make, Power Automate, Apps Script
- Practical AI/GenAI readiness โ where AI fits, where it doesn't, how to roll it out without chaos
How I work
1. Diagnose โ map the work as-is, find constraints, define success metrics
2. Design + prioritize โ future-state workflow, governance, SOPs, templates, dashboards
3. Build โ configure tools, automate handoffs, set up reporting
4. Adopt โ training, change management, reinforcement
5. Improve โ stabilize, measure, iterate
Why clients keep rehiring me
- Process-first: tools are just the container
- I work directly with decision-makers; no layers of translation
- Independent and low-noise: you stay updated without managing me
- I own outcomes, not just tasks
Clients regularly describe me as proactive, structured, and "value-add beyond scope".
Proof
- Expert-Vetted (top 1% of Upwork talent), 100% Job Success, Top Rated Plus
- $500K+ earned across 55+ contracts, with heavy repeat and long-term work
- Anchor engagements include multi-year operations leadership and executive dashboard builds
You're likely a fit if you're thinking:
โ "We're scaling and everything lives in people's heads."
โ "We bought ClickUp/Monday/Smartsheet but adoption is weak."
โ "We need SOPs, dashboards, and accountability without bureaucracy."
โ "We want automation, but our processes aren't stable yet."
โ "We want to use GenAI, but we're not ready (data, workflows, governance)."
What changes after we work together:
โ A weekly execution cadence leadership actually follows
โ Tools become the system of record, not a dumping ground
โ SOPs that cut rework and onboarding time
โ Dashboards that show what matters, not noise
โ AI layered onto stable workflows, not chaos
I also offer professional mentoring for founders and leaders in execution planning, prioritization, stakeholder management, delegation, and decision-making under ambiguity.

To get a straight answer fast, tell me:
โ what you want to achieve in the next 90 days
โ what's currently breaking in execution (process, people, tools, or reporting)
I'll tell you plainly what I'd fix first, and why.
