I am an entrepreneur and advisor focused on helping small to medium-sized businesses that are driven to change their communities in innovative ways. My approach is that of a Sherpa because I teach you how to climb the mountain and then climb it together. There are two ways I can help you and your organization: 1: Are you small to medium-sized organization struggling to scale? I teach you a new way of assessing your organization for growth and define how to scale through capabilities (capability = the ability to do something). This includes things such as decision-making, setting strategy, prioritization, business process changes, communication structures, tools, and coordination. I also assist with pressure testing ideas, market adjacencies, and validation to then turn them into actionable plans and tangible outcomes for your expanding business. 2: Do you have a struggling initiative, program, or project that is impacting your ability to grow? I provide fractional and full-time PM support. This covers assessing the scope and outcomes of what you want to achieve, rebuilding the plan, and leading the team through project execution. My approach is to teach best practices and build structures to ensure you can manage projects successfully going forward. A little about me: ▪ I work well in ambiguous environments that require excellent organization with effective communication. ▪ You will see immediate impact of processes I put in place for right-fit decision-making, prioritization, and communication ▪ I will facilitate getting your team to the same outcome in a diplomatic manner and integrate everyone's ideas My background spans many industries: Healthcare, State Government, Higher Education, Financial Services, Software and Technology, and Health and Commercial Insurance; It also includes leading and building consulting organizations.FacilitationCompetitive AnalysisMarket ResearchPitch DeckScaled Agile FrameworkAgile Project ManagementProject Portfolio ManagementBusiness AnalysisBusiness StrategyStartup ConsultingProject Management OfficeManagement ConsultingStrategic PlanningProject Management - $75 hourly

I write straight from the heart where it’s raw and vulnerable. Whether it’s composing a heartfelt love letter (YES, they still exist!) or creating content on psychology, parenting or spiritual matters, you will receive nothing short of high quality and well thought out material. Because of my gifts in empathy and peacemaking, I also have the natural talent of not only reading between the lines, but writing in the empty spaces. I can write endlessly about love, pride, ego, personalities, personal growth and spiritual matters, as it’s simply timeless to me. So, if you’re seeking a writer that brings true, authentic connection between you and your clients/readers/loved ones, I’d love to be that bridge that brings it all together! I’ve directly worked alongside and have gained the impossible trust and connection of both bank CEO’s to hardcore murderers in prison, so I look forward to serving you wherever you are on your journey. *Mother of 7 ~ 6 daughters/1 son ages 16-30 *Owned real estate firm for 13+ years *Worked closely with thousands of the incarcerated population *Currently writing a book on love/ego/prideFacilitationTeachableTeachingProperty ManagementPersonal DevelopmentActive ListeningProject ManagementMarketingEmployee CommunicationsProofreadingTypingWritingReal EstateLetter WritingCreative Writing - $155 hourly
