The Short I’m Beth, an operations strategist, automation expert, and business optimizer, and I take businesses from reactive chaos to streamlined efficiency (real quick). The Long I’m a problem-solver by nature and a process-fixer by trade. After spending years optimizing operations, implementing tools, and untangling business inefficiencies, I realized I could build my own business doing what I do best—helping solopreneurs and startups stop winging it and start running like a well-oiled machine. I’ve worked in process improvement, SaaS, business operations, and strategy, and I sell my know-how to people drowning in inefficiency and decision fatigue. Previous titles include but are not limited to: DIrector, Internal Tools and Knowledge Management Senior Product Manager/Owner Various Fancy Consulting Titles, like Senior Solutions Architect, Chief of Staff Project and/or Program Manager And my official licensure/education in case that’s helpful, too: MBA, 2020 BSc, Organizational Leadership, 2018 CSPO, CSM, Agile Coach, PMP If you’re tired of chasing your tail, wasting time on clunky tools and broken systems, and wondering if business should really be this hard—it doesn’t have to be. I connect the dots, cut the fluff, and build systems that actually work so you can grow without losing your sanity. Whether you need to ditch the manual busywork, automate your workflows, or finally organize your backend operations, I’ve got you covered. Who I Work With Unlike most consultants, I don’t care about industry labels—I care about chemistry. If you’re open to fixing what’s broken, ready to scale smarter, and not afraid to challenge how things have “always been done,” we’ll get along great. On the other hand, if you love overcomplicating things, ignoring obvious inefficiencies, or treating your team like replaceable cogs, I’m probably not your person. (Looking at you, chaotic corporate overlords. 👀) I’m unapologetically me, for you. I don’t just fix your business—I care about its long-term success. That means challenging bad habits, pushing past comfort zones, and giving you solutions that actually work (even if they’re not what you expected). Once we start working together, expect brutal honesty, strategic clarity, and maybe a little tough love. But hey, better me than your bank account.Innovation Strategy

Your business is your passion, so you want to succeed in every way possible. Keep reading if you are not on the fast track to leading your market or want to build your business into an innovation powerhouse. I help businesses become leaders in their markets. The clients I work with typically struggle with three types of problems: 1) they feel like they are going from month-to-month without much growth, 2) unsure how to organize their growing company with innovation in mind, and 3) want to undergo data transformation and become more deliberate in their decision making. Let’s face it, growing pains are real: - Your competitors become more aggressive the larger you become, - Coming up with a next-level business plan is yet another full time job, - You lack the staff or skills to optimize your costs across the board, - Your business leaders are not coordinated as effectively as they could. You’re not alone. I have been there. I get it. Imagine this: - You are confidently executing an innovation-centric business plan that works. - Competitors are reacting to YOU instead of you reacting to THEM. - You have clarity on your product’s next 18 months and a clear strategy for being the best for the next 5-10 years. - You have trimmed your costs and have achieved operational excellence. - Your workforce is skilled, growing, and having fun with their work. If you are not experiencing these luxuries, work must be done. This is why you need a partner that loves your business as much as you do. I am that partner for you. Your business is my passion. As a two-time tech founder, engineer, and business leader, I have - Implemented innovation-centric business models and strategies for startups and multi-billion dollar organizations alike, - Saved companies hundreds of thousands of dollars by realigning their products with the market, - Helped science and technology companies win millions of dollars of business, - Served as a thought leader and chief engineer for major strategic initiatives related to National Security, - Pioneered new management consulting frameworks at one of the best-known government consulting companies in the world, - And successfully led the development of groundbreaking high-tech products in a wide variety of technical disciplines. There is no better time to start now and see what we can do together.Innovation Strategy

I am a weathered entrepreneur with notable success in an extremely challenging industry of licensed sports apparel. My startup brand Rivalry Runway was offered massive Official Collegiate partnerships after just three years in business with Universities such as University of Georgia, University of Tennessee, Louisiana State University, Auburn University and more. These licensing partnership programs are extremely selective and only offered to the best of the best brands– usually large corporations. I've built my brand off of grit and relentlessness, powered by my strong mindset. Now I want to teach you how to do the same thing. My business journey has been filled with road blocks and challenges, as is every business journey, but I came out with a new innovative idea from every single challenge. Together, we can build you a profitable business model too. Do not invest in a business plan and funding. Funding only sends you into a never ending black hole of interest. Instead, invest in transforming your mindset and identifying your million dollar idea. That's where massive success lies!Innovation Strategy
