Note: When you schedule a coaching appointment, you have bought that block of time. That is because all I do is coaching and have designated that hour for you, my client. Most all meetings are scheduled a week in advance and I cannot fill that hour on just a few days notice with another client.
A make up appointment may be scheduled in emergency situations at my sole discretion.

Your team is busy. Results are inconsistent. And you're still the one holding everything together.
That's not a people problem. It's a systems problem.
I find the exact point where revenue is leaking — pipeline, operations, team accountability — and fix it. Not in a quarter. In weeks.
28 years leading global sales and operations. 6 years embedded in startups doing exactly this.
You walk away with a business that executes without you in every decision.

🇺🇸 USA-Based Fractional CMO/CRO/CTO — Los Angeles, CA
👑 Top .01% Expert-Vetted Hands on Executive on Upwork
Recently I interacted and worked with Google on AI/ML systems that I built.
I come from Enterprise ABC Disney, NBC, and 100M+ companies.
I build revenue systems, not marketing plans. Eighteen years running growth for companies from $10MM to $250M+, structured the same way every time: GTM strategy, AI/ML systems, and CRO infrastructure wired directly into pipeline and revenue.
Most fractional executives bring one lane: marketing, ops, or tech. I bring all three: CMO-level demand generation, CEO/COO-level business operations, and CTO-level technical execution. I don't hand the AI/ML build off to an engineer — I build it.
Track record:
✔ Founded a media company in 2008 — full-stack marketing & AI agency, 316 brands in 6 years
✔ 2x-exit CEO, including founding and exiting a telehealth company
✔ Fractional CMO/CRO/CTO since 2018 — GTM, revenue ops, and technical systems for funded startups and enterprise brands
✔ AI systems work with Google; speaker on AI implementation in marketing and revenue ops
✔ Agency-side enterprise growth work for Disney Interactive, Warner Bros., ABC, and TMZ
What I run:
🛠 Fractional CMO / CRO / CTO — strategy, execution, revenue and technical operations
📈 Revenue Growth Systems — GTM, CRO, and pipeline architecture wired to close
🤖 AI/ML Implementation — built by me, not briefed to an engineer
💼 Business Operations — P&L, ops, and exec decision-making, not just a marketing budget
Industries: SaaS & AI products. Healthcare and telehealth — founded and exited one. Supply chain and logistics. Home improvement and smart tech. E-commerce and D2C. Enterprise media (Disney Interactive, Warner Bros., ABC, TMZ ).

I am the person founders lean on when the business is growing, the moving parts are multiplying, and everything starts to feel harder to hold together.
For over 8 years, I have supported executives and teams through operations management, executive support, project coordination, client management, and systems improvement, helping them work with more clarity, consistency, and less operational stress.
My work sits at the intersection of strategy and execution. I do not just manage tasks. I help leaders protect their time, improve workflows, coordinate people, strengthen accountability, and create the kind of operational rhythm that keeps the business moving forward.
I am especially strong in founder and executive support environments where priorities move quickly, communication matters, and someone needs to bring calm, structure, and momentum behind the scenes. Whether the need is executive coordination, client operations, process design, recruiting support, systems cleanup, or cross-functional follow-through, I focus on making the business easier to run and the team easier to lead.
Here is where I add the most value:
Operations and Execution Support
* I improve workflows so work moves more smoothly from one stage to the next, with less confusion, delay, and operational friction.
* I keep priorities, deadlines, and follow-through visible so important tasks do not get lost and execution stays consistent.
* I organize messy or scattered processes into clearer systems that are easier for the business and team to manage.
* I build a practical structure that reduces founder dependency and helps the business run more reliably day to day.
Executive and Chief of Staff Support
* I help founders and executives stay focused on high-value work by organizing priorities and reducing daily mental overload.
* I support communication, scheduling, and follow-ups so leadership time is better protected and key items keep moving.
* I bring structure to special projects, decisions, and moving business priorities so leaders do not have to carry everything mentally.
* I act as a dependable right hand by helping create clarity, visibility, and stronger execution behind the scenes.
Team Coordination and Accountability
* I help teams stay aligned by making responsibilities, ownership, and next steps clear.
* I keep communication flowing across people and workstreams so updates, blockers, and priorities are not missed.
* I follow up consistently and professionally to keep momentum high and reduce dropped tasks or delays.
* I support stronger accountability and more dependable execution by helping teams work with greater clarity and rhythm.
Client and Business Support Systems
* I keep CRM systems, records, and workflows organized so client and internal information stays accurate and useful.
* I support onboarding and delivery processes so clients and team members have a smoother and more structured experience.
* I improve communication flow across clients, stakeholders, and internal teams so expectations stay clear and work moves better.
* I build systems that make the business feel more organized, responsive, and reliable for everyone involved.
Tools and Platforms
*I work comfortably across modern operations, executive support, and coordination systems, including ClickUp, Asana, Airtable, Notion, Trello, Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, Slack, Teams, HubSpot, GoHighLevel, Recruit CRM, Clay, Zoho CRM, Calendly, Loom, Fireflies, Canva, Zapier, and other workflow and support tools.
Why Clients Work With Me
* Clients work with me because I bring structure, ownership, and calm execution to fast-moving businesses.
* With 8 plus years of experience, I have supported 20 plus founders, executives, and teams across operations, executive support, project coordination, and business systems.
* I have worked behind the scenes on five-figure and six-figure business activities, including monthly workflows, client accounts, and operational budgets ranging from $2,000 to $100,000 plus.
* My value is not just in getting things done, but in creating clarity, improving accountability, and making day-to-day operations easier to run.
What Makes My Approach Different
* I combine executive support, operations thinking, and project coordination in a way that helps leaders move faster without losing control.
* I do not wait to be told every next step.
* I notice gaps early.
* I bring structure to messy workflows.
* I help teams stay accountable.
* I build processes that support growth instead of slowing it down.
Most importantly, I work like a PARTNER, not just a HELPER.
If you need someone who can help bring clarity to your operations, strengthen execution, support leadership, and keep your team and systems moving well, I would love to support you.

💰$100M+ in attributable revenue across 260+ e-commerce brands.
🔎 Where Revenue Leaks
Most setups bleed at every handoff. Your Google account runs blind to retention context. Your email person has no idea what your ads are saying. Nobody owns the full picture.
I own the full picture.
🧬 For Telehealth & Peptide Brands
I get your specific reality. Ad accounts that get flagged, ESPs that pull the plug, processors that freeze funds without warning. I build around that volatility instead of pretending it isn’t there. Effecty, Brello Health, Modern Aminos, and Prime Peptides are all in the portfolio, all 8 and 9-figure peptide brands
📈 Paid Search (Google Ads)
Full funnel across Search, Shopping, PMAX, Display, and YouTube. Built around profitability, not vanity ROAS. Prospecting that captures demand, remarketing that closes it.
CUMA Skin Care, 30 days post-restructure at the same spend: revenue +39%, conversions +42.5%, ROAS 2.56x to 3.16x, new customer ROAS 1.69x to 2.47x, CPA down 21%.
- Diesel LED: new customer acquisition cost from $128 to $73, blended MER 2.91x to 3.99x across a 24-month restructure.
- Poppy’s Patina: $32,632 in spend generated $210,878 in revenue at 6.47x ROAS against a 4x target.
📫 Retention and Lifecycle (Email + SMS)
Flows, campaign strategy, segmentation, and deliverability built to drive 30 to 40% of total revenue within 90 days. Every send informed by what’s happening in your ad accounts and on your site.
- Genetic Protocol: took Klaviyo attributed revenue from 14.45% to 46.93% of total store revenue in a single month. Attributed revenue climbed from $41,616 to $277,120, a 566% jump, while total store revenue grew 97% over the same window.
- Diesel LED: recovered $21,790 in flow attribution silently lost to broken UTM tracking. Rebuilt welcome, abandoned cart, and post-purchase flows now feeding a $3.84M program.
- Inno Supps: $13.5K+ in net new revenue and 150K+ dormant subscribers re-engaged in the first 10 days, through a deliverability and re-engagement push. Ongoing work covers profile cleanup, SMS reactivation, flow rebuilds, and segmentation across the full Klaviyo program.
🔗 Why Both Beats Five Freelancers
Each channel feeds the other. Your search terms shape your email angles. Your flow data informs your next offer. Your top email subject lines become your best ad headlines. One operator, one strategy, no gaps.
✅ Good Fit
You’re doing $75K+/month and scaling. You want expert execution on retention, paid search, or both, run by someone who knows how the two compound.
🚫 Not a Fit
You’re under $50K/month, you need a one-off task, or you’re shopping for the lowest rate instead of the highest return. I take on a limited number of brands at a time and keep it that way on purpose.
If that sounds like your setup, send a note and we’ll figure out fast whether there’s a fit.

Behind every creative person, every small and growing business, is an Alfred. There comes a point in the development of every business where if an organizational overhaul doesn't take place, scaling isn't possible. That's where I come in.
You might know exactly what you want, or you might have a general sense of unease. Many business owners know there are things that can be done better, but they aren't sure where to start and don't have the time to figure it out.
I've spent years honing a carefully curated (but extensive) list of skills by working with small business teams and as a freelancer. These various experiences have given me invaluable insights into different industries, processes, tools and departments. I've had my hands in dozens of different projects and this has allowed me to analyze businesses and develop custom solutions.
I've also worked really hard to become acclimated to as much technology as possible. I'm certified in Asana, Notion, Make.com, Quickbooks, Trainual and Gorgias. I'm expert-level in Clickup, Trello, Monday, Processstreet, Jira, Confluence, Hubspot, Hubstaff, Harvest, Front, and many more.
Some of my specialty areas include:
- Day to day direct executive support, project management or operations management
- Acting as team communication leader and project manager ensuring efficient information sharing
- Process development
- Analyzing, streamlining and automating workflows
- Tool recommendations, data migration, set up and training
- Financials (Quickbooks, data transfers, budgets, action plans) I am a certified Quickbooks Pro Advisor! I am certified to help you optimize your usage of Quickbooks.
- I specialize in choosing, setting up and executing project management software. I am well versed in all major options. I am also an Asana Together Certified Pro and Notion Certified.
- Developing, launching and leading initiatives regarding efficiency, organization, team building, marketing, hiring, and more.
- Resource management including HR, payroll and employee engagement
- Long term goal planning, and breaking down those goals into achievable projects with specific steps and due dates
- Putting out fires, reducing bottlenecks, and keeping things from falling through the cracks
