I’ve increased operational capacity by 2x without scaling headcount by building systems that allow teams to execute more efficiently across functions and time zones. I’ve operated globally across US and international teams, managing cross-functional execution in high-growth environments. I’m Top Rated Plus on Upwork with a 100% job success score. WHAT I DO I build operational systems that turn strategy into structured, accountable execution. This includes: Designing workflows inside CRMs and project management tools Translating high-level direction into clear, trackable execution Creating visibility into capacity, blockers, and performance Aligning leadership, sales, and delivery teams around priorities Stabilizing execution across cross-functional and distributed teams RECENT IMPACT - Reduced lead research workload from ~100 hours/week to a single 40-hour role, replacing 2–3 full- time research functions through system design and AI-supported workflows - Maintained full pipeline output (100 qualified leads/week) after team reduction, eliminating the need to rehire while sustaining aggressive sales targets - Built CRM and pipeline infrastructure from zero visibility to real-time tracking, enabling faster, data-driven decisions across hiring, sales, and operations - Protected and extended high-value client relationships, including a $180K+ engagement, by improving delivery structure, communication clarity, and stakeholder alignment - Expanded project management capacity beyond 5–6 concurrent projects without additional hires by implementing structured tracking and decision systems - Reduced cross-functional coordination overhead by replacing manual follow-ups with structured workflows and clear ownership TOOLKIT ClickUp, Pipedrive, Trello, CRM systems, Microsoft Suite (Teams, Planner, Excel), Canva AI-supported workflows for research, documentation, and operational efficiency HOW I WORK I’m not a task manager.
