I'm a former startup founder who built and exited a business, and now I help fellow founders craft winning pitch decks that communicate their vision and attract investors. My work has helped founders secure $400M in funding, and I've been trusted by Fortune 500 companies and global brands, including Philip Morris International, Ahold Delhaize, and AB InBev. View my portfolio below to see some successful Pitch Deck examples. Excited to talk! ______________ My long version pitch: I help startups create investor-ready pitch decks, fundraising presentations, and VC decks that clearly communicate the opportunity and support successful capital raises. I don't just make slides look nicer. I build decks that secure funding. If you are preparing for a pre-seed, seed, or Series A round and need a deck that investors can quickly understand, trust, and engage with — keep reading. SELECTED RESULTS 🚀 Wievmind — $20M raised 🚀 Gas-it-up — $70M raised 🚀 Geoff Green — $30M raised 🚀 Perseus Labs — $5M raised 🚀 Bookinguru — $1.5M raised 🚀 SnipeMedical — $2M raised These decks were not created as simple presentations. They were built around investor thinking — positioning the opportunity, clarifying the market, strengthening the narrative, and making the investment case clear. HOW I THINK ABOUT PITCH DECKS Investors don't read decks. They scan them. You have only a short window to answer the questions they actually care about: ✓ Is this a large enough market? ✓ Why now? ✓ Why this team? ✓ Why will this company win? Most founders build decks from the inside out — explaining the product, features, and roadmap. Investors evaluate from the outside in: Market → Opportunity → Advantage → Proof → Potential Return That difference is what separates a slide deck from an investor-ready fundraising deck. WHAT I HELP WITH I help founders transform existing materials into: ✓ Investor Pitch Decks ✓ Fundraising Decks ✓ VC Presentations ✓ Startup Presentations ✓ Pitch Deck Redesigns ✓ Investment Narratives I focus on: ✓ Story structure ✓ Investor messaging ✓ Visual hierarchy ✓ Data visualization ✓ Market and competitor slides ✓ Clear communication of complex ideas WHO I WORK WITH I mainly work with pre-seed to Series A founders preparing to raise capital. If your business is strong but investors are not moving forward, the issue is often not the company — it is how the opportunity is presented. That is where I help. MY BACKGROUND Over the past 5+ years, I've combined presentation design with startup strategy to help founders raise capital. My approach combines presentation design with startup thinking — creating decks that are not only visually strong, but strategically clear. The goal is simple: Create a deck that helps investors understand the opportunity faster.

I'm a Strategy and Operations consultant with experience scaling start-ups from 0 to funding, and helping established companies solve the tough problems. I've been privileged to work with household names such as Apple and the NFL and equally privileged to work with smaller companies you haven't heard of...yet.

If your visibility isn’t translating into qualified opportunities, there’s a breakdown in positioning, targeting, or execution. I work with founders, executives, and professional services firms to build structured visibility and outreach systems that consistently generate the right conversations—without noise, guesswork, or fragmented tools. Most clients come to me after outgrowing piecemeal efforts. They don’t want to manage multiple freelancers or test disconnected tactics. They want a proven, integrated system—one that creates clarity, builds momentum, and delivers measurable results. ➡️ With 9+ years working with high-trust, high-value firms globally, we’ve developed a refined approach supported by our own API-driven dashboard, tracking performance across outreach, engagement, and pipeline development. ➡️ This is not task-based work. It’s a fully integrated growth system, supported by a consistent, US-based team that has worked together long-term—providing continuity, precision, and accountability most clients can’t build in-house. ➡️ Clients typically stay with us for years because the system compounds over time and continues to improve. What we build: ✅ Clear positioning and go-to-market strategy ✅ Defined ICP and audience segmentation ✅ Messaging and authority frameworks ✅ Strategic content and visibility (when needed) ✅ Data-driven outreach across LinkedIn and complementary channels ✅ End-to-end campaign execution, tracking, and optimization ✅ Ongoing refinement based on real performance data What this leads to: ✅ Consistent, qualified conversations ✅ Stronger market positioning and credibility ✅ A system that improves over time—not one that resets every month ✅ Proven results, built through our own platform and client work: I work best with firms that value clarity, strategy, and sustained growth over quick wins or one-off tactics. If that aligns with what you’re building, we can have a focused conversation around your goals, current gaps, and whether there’s a fit. Best, Kim

Claude Certified Architect | Anthropic Partner Network Member | ClickUp Solutions Partner I have spent the past three years working at the intersection of AI and operations, helping companies put AI to work inside the way they actually run, not as a side experiment. In that time I have placed and trained more than 30 Chiefs of Staff, embedding them into founder-led and enterprise teams and teaching them to run operations with AI tools rather than around them. I have mentored more than 100 students and young professionals entering the field. My work has spanned the United States, the United Kingdom, Asia, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Switzerland. I am looking forward to helping you build AI agents that run real workflows, automate the operational load slowing your team down, and integrate AI into the systems you already use. Tell me the process costing you the most time and I will tell you what AI can take off your plate.

With over a decade of hands-on experience building and scaling coffee businesses, I help founders, operators, and investors turn bold ideas into profitable realities. I founded and ran Blue Sail Coffee for 11 years—launching 3 cafés (one ranked among the Top 100 in the world (twice), creating a national roasting operation, and closing deals with Walmart, Kroger, and Whole Foods. I built two multi-million dollar brands from the ground up, led all B2B sales, product development, hiring, and operations, and successfully exited the company in 2025. Along the way, I’ve consulted for 40+ coffee brands worldwide—from boutique roasters and café startups to global exporters and private-label brands. I’ve developed products across every category: RTD coffee, single-serve pods, office coffee programs, 5-pound subscription bags, private label packaging, and more. I’ve also negotiated co-packing agreements, managed freight and sourcing logistics, and helped brands scale sustainably. If you’re looking for an expert who understands every link in the coffee chain—from green sourcing to retail shelf—I bring a rare combination of strategic insight and execution experience. Whether you’re launching a new brand, expanding into big-box retail, optimizing operations, or looking to exit—I can help. Expertise includes: • Brand & Product Strategy • Coffee Roasting & Retail Operations • Business Development & Sales Strategy • Private Label / White Label Programs • B2B & DTC Expansion • Co-Packing, Fulfillment & Logistics • Coffee Farm Partnerships & International Trade • Hiring, SOPs, and Team Building • Shopify, Email Marketing, and Digital Launches Let’s build something exceptional.

Most companies have accounting. Very few have investor-ready financial models that support fundraising, runway planning, pricing decisions, and major growth scenarios. I help founders and leadership teams build investor-ready financial models used for capital raises, lender conversations, expansion planning, and board-level decision support. Typical engagements include: • 3-statement financial forecasts • 12–36 month runway and burn models • Revenue build-up and unit economics modelling • Scenario and sensitivity analysis • Pricing and expansion decision models • Lender-ready and investor-ready projection structures Most engagements begin with structuring assumptions architecture before projection layers are built. I am a Chartered Accountant (ACA) and strategic finance leader with 20+ years of experience supporting financial planning, capital structuring, and operational finance across telecom, technology, fintech, and consumer businesses. My work has supported transactions exceeding $260M+ across capital raises, infrastructure financing, and corporate finance initiatives, including large-scale telecom funding environments and consumer sector expansion programs. These models are typically used to support investor discussions, internal planning decisions, and lender-facing projection environments rather than internal reporting workflows. FINANCIAL MODELING FOR FUNDRAISING & DECISION SUPPORT I support startups and growth-stage companies preparing for: • Seed and growth capital raises • Lender readiness and debt discussions • Runway visibility and burn planning • Pricing and margin strategy decisions • Expansion scenario planning • Board and leadership forecasting environments This work typically includes: • Investor-ready financial models • Scenario planning and sensitivity analysis • Revenue driver modelling • Unit economics frameworks • Business valuation support models • Strategic planning projection environments STRATEGIC FINANCE SUPPORT (SELECT ENGAGEMENTS) For selected engagements, I also support leadership teams with strategic finance input beyond the model itself where funding decisions, capital planning, or board preparation require it. This can include: • Cash flow strategy and runway planning • Budgeting and rolling forecasts • Capital structuring support • Profitability visibility frameworks • Decision-support reporting environments INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE My experience spans: • SaaS and technology companies • Telecommunications and infrastructure • Fintech and financial services • Food & beverage and consumer businesses Across these sectors, I support leadership teams in building structured financial projection environments that improve visibility, strengthen funding readiness, and support confident growth decisions. HOW I WORK I combine strategic finance thinking with hands-on financial model architecture. The focus is always to translate assumptions into clear projection structures that support real decisions rather than spreadsheet outputs alone. If helpful, I can outline the structure I would typically implement in the first stage of your model before you decide how you want to proceed.

Most consultants tell you what to think. I show you what I've built — and then help you build yours. I'm a 3x founder and operator who has worked across Web3, fintech, global payments, and traditional industry — and I bring two things together that are almost never in the same person: deep crypto/DeFi expertise and BCG-caliber business strategy. My track record across both worlds: - Represented a $41M ICO (SONM) globally — one of the largest of its era — and negotiated a direct Binance listing - Designed tokenomics for projects that collectively raised $55M+ - Built and shipped a fully on-chain perpetuals DEX (FlexDEX on Everscale/TON) from zero to live product - Helped raise $6M for a top European proprietary trading firm — pitch narrative, financial structuring, and investor materials - Advised top-tier steel producers and a market-leading restaurant management company on BCG-level corporate strategy — growth models, competitive positioning, and market entry - Managed a $50M Family Office portfolio in Dubai: 100%+ bond returns, outperformed most VC fund benchmarks - Ran a crypto hedge fund to 1,000%+ return with a perfect exit before the 2018 crash - BS Computer Science (Bar-Ilan University) + 16 years of real-world software development before founding What I deliver on Upwork: - Tokenomics architecture — emission, vesting, distribution, governance, anti-dump mechanics built to survive market cycles - Business strategy — market analysis, competitive positioning, growth models, GTM frameworks (BCG-methodology) - Financial models — investor-grade P&L, cash flow, unit economics, scenario analysis for seed through Series A - Pitch decks — fundraising narratives that make investors lean forward, not scroll past - Whitepapers — technical + economic sections written for both institutional investors and exchanges - Fundraising preparation — everything a founder needs to be raise-ready, structured and positioned for the best outcome - Financial Management Consulting — portfolio optimization, capital allocation, risk-adjusted performance tracking, and hands-on treasury / cash-flow management for Web3 projects and traditional businesses - Investments Mentorship — I love this work. Deep fundamental analysis, long-term value investing (Warren Buffett style) applied to both traditional assets and select crypto protocols, high-conviction position sizing, trading frameworks, and market-making strategies that actually work in volatile markets I do not act as a fundraising agent or placement agent. I prepare founders to raise — with the materials, models, and narrative that give them the highest chance of success. - Personal Coaching . I also hold a degree in Transpersonal Psychology. Beyond the models and mechanics, I bring a rare layer: real-world application of transpersonal psychology to supercharge personal power. I help ambitious founders, traders, and investors elevate their energy, forge bulletproof self-confidence, cultivate mental resilience in extreme uncertainty, and align inner state with outer results — so you don’t just survive high-stakes environments, you thrive in them. Whether it's crushing decision fatigue during a bear market, owning the room in investor meetings, or sustaining long-term drive without burnout, this psychological edge turns good operators into exceptional ones. I work with a small number of clients at a time. Fluent in English and Hebrew, Intermidiate Spanish — well-positioned for projects worldwide First project? Message me before ordering. I want to make sure I'm the right fit — and if I am, I'll over-deliver.

I help small business owners and startup founders bring structure to the chaos. Most of the people I work with are great at what they do — they just need someone who can step in, see what is not working, and help put things in order without making it complicated, corporate, or unnecessarily expensive. I have spent 15+ years building HR departments from the ground up, managing high-volume recruiting across multiple industries, processing payroll, supporting financial operations, and creating systems that make businesses run smoother. I am not “corporate HR.” I am the person who helps you figure out what needs to get done, makes it happen, and builds processes that can last beyond your first 20 hires. I work best with founders, executives, and small business owners who are wearing too many hats and need a trusted operator who can help carry the load. I keep things simple, I work fast, and I care about building processes that protect the business while still supporting the people who help it grow. --- My Expertise Includes: People Operations & HR Leadership * HR department buildout from the ground up * Workforce planning, org design, and team structure * HR compliance support, audits, documentation, and risk reduction * Policy development, employee handbooks, SOPs, and internal procedures * Employee relations, workplace investigations, corrective action, and terminations * Performance management systems, review cycles, and manager coaching * Onboarding, offboarding, employee documentation, and personnel file management * Benefits administration, open enrollment support, and broker/vendor coordination * Employee engagement, retention planning, recognition programs, and workplace culture support * HR analytics, dashboards, KPIs, turnover tracking, and workforce reporting Recruiting & Talent Operations * High-volume recruiting across multiple industries * End-to-end hiring: sourcing, screening, interviews, offers, and onboarding * ATS setup, candidate tracking, interview frameworks, and hiring workflows * Job description creation, compensation alignment, and candidate pipeline development * Recruiting process improvement and hiring manager support Payroll, Compliance & HR Systems * 15+ years of payroll processing experience * Multi-state and international payroll support * W-2 and 1099 payroll workflows * Payroll audits, corrections, cleanup, and compliance reviews * Time tracking, overtime workflows, and pay policy implementation * State tax account setup and payroll registration support * HRIS, payroll, and timekeeping system implementation and optimization * Experience navigating and learning a wide range of payroll and HR platforms quickly Financial Operations Support In addition to HR and payroll, I also support small businesses with financial operations that keep the back office moving. This includes: * Accounts payable support * Accounts receivable support * Invoice tracking and payment follow-up * Payment processing coordination * Vendor and contractor payment workflows * Light bookkeeping support * Expense tracking and reporting * Financial operations cleanup and process improvement * Coordination between payroll, contractor payments, billing, and internal reporting I am not positioning myself as a CPA or tax advisor, but I am very comfortable managing the day-to-day financial operations that many small businesses need help organizing. I can also coordinate with accountants, bookkeepers, tax professionals, and finance partners to make sure records, payments, and reporting stay clean. ### Business Operations & Executive Support * Executive operations and Chief of Staff-style support * Managing CEO/founder priorities, follow-through, and special projects * Building and improving workflows across departments * System implementation: CRMs, HRIS, payroll, accounting, project management, and automation tools * Business process audits, cleanup projects, and operational restructuring * Cross-functional communication and team alignment * Vendor management, internal reporting, and operational accountability * Acting as the bridge between leadership, employees, vendors, and systems --- ### Why Clients Work With Me My approach is action-focused, practical, and rooted in solving the actual problem — not just creating more paperwork. I work strategically, I explain clearly, and I do not overcomplicate the process. I understand that people drive the business, but people operations, payroll, compliance, and financial workflows still need to align with the company’s goals. I help businesses connect the dots between people, money, systems, and execution. If your business is growing and you need someone who can step in, clean things up, build structure, and help keep operations moving, let’s connect. I am ready to jump in and make a lasting impact.
