💬 Nothing speaks louder than the people who’ve worked with me on Upwork and Linkedin:
“The best project manager I’ve met in 10+ years of marketing.” — Alex Cattoni, Founder of CopyPosse, as seen on Forbes
“She enriches the business at every step and implements faster than you can imagine.” Coen Vermeer (Founder, Hyperwash BV)
“The best hire I've ever had on Upwork. An operations maven who cuts through ambiguity.” — A.J. Lawrence, CEO of the JAR Group (Inc. 5000)
“Goes beyond getting the job done; she adds value at every step.” — Mackenzie Barth (Forbes 30 Under 30)
-----------------------
If you're here, you're likely creating something no one has ever built before, which means you can’t copy‑paste someone else’s framework. You’re architecting an entire world; a home your audience returns to because every visit makes them better in life and business.
You’ve already achieved the money, the influence, the acclaim.
Now you’re ready to build the culmination of your work.
And here’s the truth you already know:
There’s no playbook for what you’re building next. No SOP for the impossible.
That’s where I come in.
I help you figure it out AND get it done - translating your vision into clear priorities and coordinated execution.
You’re not looking for someone to rewrite your ideas.
You want someone who can see the missing pieces, operationalize them, and keep everything moving.
Someone who removes micro‑decisions so details don't flood you, but get done and out of your way.
Someone who can take strategy (or help you form it) and turn it into action, structure, and completion.
Someone who can apply experience to uncharted territory and build something brand new… then run it to the moon and stars.
And that’s exactly what I’ve done when I:
💰 built a 6‑figure lingerie brand in a conservative market
💰 rallied millionaire CEOs into a one‑of‑a‑kind EdTech platform (and launched it!)
💰 got a global community one year ahead of their programs
💰 managed 6‑figure monthly campaigns for a personal development brand
💰 supported an Inc. 500 CEO & a Forbes 30 Under 30 founder as they launched their flywheel ventures
These weren’t theoretical wins.
They were executed... with complexity, and without a playbook.
Imagine if you could:
🚀 smash “impossible” roadblocks with creative, grounded solutions
🚀 stop being the bottleneck because you have a second brain holding the operational threads
🚀 have someone who not only sees the path forward, but executes it relentlessly
🚀 and finally build your flywheel of multi‑million‑dollar brands
You’re not here to build a single business.
You’re here to build a flywheel — a world — where each brand fuels the next.
And you need someone who can keep the wheel spinning while you stay at the center of the vision.
So if you’re juggling IRL events while launching digital products, or managing on‑site and virtual teams while birthing new product lines…
I’m here to help you finish what you started, keep it running, and execute the work that brings your world to life — as your Operations & Execution Partner.

🧘♂️ Support retreat organizers and coaches with planning, hosting, and coordination
I speak German, English, and French fluently, and have conversational skills in Spanish and Italian—a valuable asset for communicating across countries and cultures.
People who work with me value my:
problem solving skills
proactive mindset
calm, clear and professional communication
love for detail without losing the bigger picture
and my deep understanding of what makes renting (or an experience) truly special
