I help businesses translate how they actually operate into documentation their teams can use - closing the gap between complex operating principles and practical, frontline-ready tools. My background spans chemical engineering, large-scale manufacturing operations, and professional services - which means I understand both the technical depth and the human reality of how processes need to work on the ground. What makes my work different is that I don't just write procedures. I study how a business operates as a system, identify where documentation is creating friction or dependency, and build tools that give teams genuine autonomy. The result is documentation that reduces founder or manager involvement without sacrificing quality or consistency. My experience includes: Translating a complex, enterprise-level manufacturing operating system into practical frontline tools for production operatives - making high-level operational principles usable at the point of work. Developing laboratory equipment SOPs that balanced technical precision with clarity for daily users - ensuring compliance without creating documentation that sat on a shelf. Creating frontline-facing SOPs for production environments where speed, clarity and decision-making under pressure were non-negotiable. Currently working with a professional services firm to build their full operational documentation suite - spanning customer journey, billing systems, collections processes and business development - with a specific focus on reducing founder dependency and building a connected system rather than isolated procedures. I work best with: Business owners who have outgrown informal ways of working and need their operational knowledge captured and systemised. Teams that need documentation built around how they actually work, not theoretical compliance frameworks. If you need someone who can hold the big picture and the detail at the same time, let's talk.

You're running a growing business. You know you need to take cybersecurity seriously, get your team properly trained, or get a handle on programs that are starting to feel out of control — but you don't have the budget for a big consulting firm, and you're not sure who to trust. That's exactly who I work with. I'm Christian — an independent consultant with 30+ years of experience across cybersecurity GRC, training content development, and program management. I started my career in the US Navy Nuclear program, where I learned that precision and attention to detail aren't optional. Since then I've worked across R&D, quality management, and program delivery — and for the past several years I've been bringing that experience directly to small and mid-sized businesses that need enterprise-level expertise without the enterprise price tag. Here's what I actually do: Cybersecurity GRC — I help you understand your risk, build practical policies and frameworks, and get compliant without drowning in jargon or unnecessary complexity. Training content development — From the initial idea through to finished video content, I manage the entire process. If your team needs to learn something, I can build the program that teaches it. Program management — If you have a project with too many moving parts and not enough clarity, I help you get organized, keep things on track, and adapt when the unexpected happens — because it always does. I also use AI tools across all of my work — not as a gimmick, but as a practical way to deliver better results faster. What you won't get from me: buzzwords, generic advice, or a solution that was built for someone else's business. What you will get: someone who takes the time to understand your situation and gives you straight answers. I work with clients across the US, EU, and Africa. Time zones haven't been a problem yet. If any of this sounds like what you've been looking for, send me a message. No pressure, no sales pitch — just a conversation.
