I’m Stephanie, and I enjoy working with founders and executives on strategic and financial projects that move their businesses forward. This includes fractional CFO / COO support, setting up financial and operations systems, establishing KPIs and OKRs, financial modeling, business planning, pricing and partnerships analyses and other projects. I'm a Founder, Wharton MBA, former investment banker and former political & non-profit fundraiser with a background in private equity, corporate development, and building and running multimillion dollar growth operations. I have worked with private equity and VC backed companies, real estate, tech / SaaS companies, consumer goods, healthcare, financial institutions, and non-profits. As an investment banker, I advised on over $5B in transactions, including M&A and IPO processes, and as a political fundraiser I built and executed multi-million dollar fundraising plans from the ground up. Overall, I specialize in utilizing data to drive business decisions and offer expertise in Excel / PowerPoint, business plans, pitch decks, investor memorandums, financial reports, marketing materials, and other analyses. As a consultant, my experience includes fractional CFO and COO roles, assisting founders in raising over $270M in capital, helping founders better align their company's operations with ESG goals, and optimizing supply chain, pricing, business development, and finance operations. I am a jack of many trades, and typically, I am able to help a business tackle more than one problem area. I am open to one time projects, as well as longer term contracts. **Note, I assist founders in preparing for funding rounds and managing this process, but I do not make personal introductions or fundraise for a fee. If you are looking to hire a fundraiser based on a commission, please research the laws surrounding this before reaching out to people on upwork -- in many instances, it is illegal to hire a freelancer for a commission-based fundraise.**
