    I help save you time so that you can focus on what’s important. Hi, my name is Christy and I’m here to serve as your Chief of Staff/People & Business Operations/Queen of Special Projects. Currently I lead the People function at a tech and management consultancy based in Greater Seattle. Because we’re a smaller company I wear many hats (executive assistant, operations, marketing, biz dev, special projects). My professional history includes working with CEOs in various industries, ranging from startups to HR consulting firms and working with execs at Fortune 100s such as Microsoft through client-based work. My skills include: Project Management, HR/People Operations, Business Operations, Recruiting, Onboarding, Surveys, Workflows, Writing, Editing, Event Planning, Research, Communications, just to name a few. I’m familiar with most tools out there and can easily ramp up if I’m not 🙂. There’s never a lack of projects to be taken on or priorities. I can help you sift through those priorities to understand the most meaningful for the business or you can hire me with your tasks in mind and I’ll take it off your plate. Why me? I have an ownership mindset and that’s what tends to set me apart from just checking the box off a to-do. I love building, which is why I thrive in a startup environment. Being able to spin up an idea and execute within the same day is exciting to me. Not to mention the impact! I’m looking to join Upwork so that I can contribute my skills and help make a difference to someone looking for solutions now. Brain dump your ideas on me via virtual meeting or email, I’ll “download the data” then get to work in fulfilling the job. I'll also collaborate with you, your teams, or leadership team to be a strategic partner. Looking forward to working with you! Cheers, Christy P.S. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns about my qualifications. Happy to provide references!
