I help busy founders and executives turn complex, fast-moving businesses into organized, scalable operations. For more than 20 years, I have partnered directly with CEOs, founders, and executive leadership teams to manage the operational work that keeps organizations moving. My experience spans business operations, executive support, finance, HR, payroll, recruiting, vendor management, project coordination, process improvement, documentation, and strategic planning. I do more than complete assigned tasks. I identify gaps, anticipate needs, improve workflows, create practical systems, and solve problems before they become costly obstacles. Throughout my career, I have: • Managed payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable, budgeting, and financial operations • Led recruiting, onboarding, benefits administration, and HR compliance • Coordinated complex executive calendars, travel, meetings, and communications • Reduced payment-processing cycles by 25% through workflow improvements • Improved employee retention by strengthening onboarding systems • Negotiated vendor contracts resulting in more than $65,000 in annual savings • Managed multimillion-dollar facilities budgets and capital improvement projects • Planned and executed corporate events for up to 600 attendees • Created SOPs, trackers, reporting systems, and operational documentation that improved consistency and accountability • Supported executive leadership through complex organizational transitions and changing priorities I have supported organizations in cybersecurity, healthcare, education, supply chain, wellness, and the nonprofit sector. Clients and colleagues value my ability to work independently, communicate clearly, protect confidential information, and bring structure to situations that initially feel scattered or overwhelming. I am comfortable receiving a broad objective, determining what needs to happen, and carrying the work through to completion with minimal supervision. I can support you as an: • Executive Assistant • Executive Operations Partner • Operations Manager • Project Coordinator • Business Operations Consultant • Strategic Right Hand to a Founder or CEO My areas of expertise include: • Executive Support and Priority Management • Business Operations • Project Management • Payroll Administration • Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable • HR Administration • Recruiting and Onboarding • Vendor and Contract Management • Process Improvement • SOP Development • Calendar, Meeting, and Travel Coordination • Event Planning • Microsoft 365 • Google Workspace • Operational Reporting and Documentation I also bring a coaching-informed and holistic perspective to my work, particularly when supporting creative, wellness-focused, spiritually oriented, or mission-driven founders. My background includes accountability support, spiritual practice, Reiki, sound healing, guided reflection, creative vision mapping, and helping people navigate periods of personal or professional transition. This allows me to support both the practical demands of a business and the human being carrying the vision behind it. I help clients clarify priorities, organize complex ideas, create sustainable routines, and move forward without relying on rigid or shame-based productivity systems. I work with sensitivity, discretion, groundedness, and respect for each client’s beliefs and personal process. I do not impose a particular spiritual framework. Whether you need stronger operations, reliable executive support, clearer systems, or a trusted partner who can help translate vision into action, I bring strategic thinking, hands-on execution, and consistent follow-through. Let’s bring order to the complexity and build systems that genuinely support the way you work.

If you’re a founder, investor, executive, or UHNW principal managing multiple priorities, you don’t need another assistant—you need someone who can create structure, drive execution, and bring operational clarity to complex environments. That’s where I come in. I serve as a Fractional Chief of Staff and Executive Operations Consultant, partnering with leaders who need an experienced operator they can trust to own execution, solve operational problems, and keep critical initiatives moving forward with minimal oversight. My specialty is turning operational complexity into clear systems, accountable execution, and measurable progress. Whether I’m optimizing business operations, implementing new systems, managing strategic initiatives, coordinating multiple entities, or overseeing executive and personal operations, my focus is always the same: creating order where others see complexity. I don’t simply complete tasks—I build the operational infrastructure that allows leaders to focus on growth, decisions, and strategy while knowing execution is handled. ⸻ What I Do • Build scalable operating systems, workflows, reporting, and operational cadence • Lead strategic initiatives from planning through execution • Optimize business processes, financial operations, and cross-functional collaboration • Implement and improve CRM, project management, and operational software • Translate meetings into clear priorities, accountability, and follow-through • Manage complex executive and personal operations, including multiple businesses, properties, vendors, travel, and high-value assets • Create executive dashboards, decision-ready reporting, and operational visibility ⸻ Where I Add the Most Value I work best with: • Founders scaling rapidly who need operational leverage • CEOs and executives balancing multiple companies or priorities • UHNW principals and family offices requiring trusted operational leadership • Businesses that have outgrown informal processes and need scalable systems • Organizations where execution has become dependent on the founder Clients typically engage me when operations have become reactive, priorities compete for attention, and the business needs experienced leadership to restore clarity, accountability, and momentum. ⸻ Selected Impact • Accelerated $1M+ in receivables by redesigning contract-to-cash operations • Maintained approximately 36-day DSO throughout COVID while operating under private equity ownership • Reported directly to executive leadership and Board members in high-growth environments • Led post-acquisition operational integration, systems implementation, and process improvement initiatives • Managed complex executive operations across multiple homes, private aviation, vendors, financial administration, and business interests for an UHNW principal ⸻ How I Work My clients hire me because I think like an operator—not a task manager. I quickly assess operational gaps, establish structure, execute independently, and continuously improve systems as businesses evolve. I ask thoughtful questions, anticipate problems before they become emergencies, and create processes that continue delivering value long after implementation. The result is greater clarity, stronger accountability, better execution, and more capacity for leaders to focus on the highest-value parts of their business. ⸻ Technology NetSuite • Salesforce • Microsoft 365 • Smartsheet • Workday • ADP • Expensify • Concur • AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot) ⸻ Engagements I offer: • Fractional Chief of Staff partnerships • Executive Operations Consulting • Strategic operational buildouts and systems implementation • Executive and UHNW operational management Long-term partnerships may be structured with weekly minimum hour requirements to ensure continuity, dedicated availability, and meaningful operational progress. Fixed-fee projects are available for clearly defined initiatives with established scope, deliverables, and timelines. I do not provide intermittent, on-demand virtual assistant support or ad hoc administrative task execution. My clients engage me to own outcomes, build systems, and deliver lasting operational improvements.
