WHAT I DO

Structure and Systems

Design workflows and processes that match how your team actually works and fix workflows that don’t work for your team.

Team Coordination & Culture

Break down silos, align priorities, and keep cross-functional work moving forward.

Strategic Execution

Turn plans into action with clear owners, timelines, and accountability structures that stick.

Executive Support

Protect your time for the work only you can do. I take complex problems off your plate and bring back solutions.

WHO THIS IS FOR

  • Growing organizations

    $500K–$5M budget. Things are working, and they are moving in the right direction, but your old processes are slowing you down and you’re not ready for a full-time COO.

  • Organizations in transition

    New leadership, a pivot, a merger, layoffs – you need steady operational hands while the map gets redrawn.

  • Executives drowning in ops

    You’re great at vision but stuck in execution. You need someone to own the day-to-day so you can focus on the work only you can do.

  • Teams with silos

    Great people, weak coordination. No one’s connecting the dots across functions to make sure things actually get done.

  • Map ≠ territory

    Decisions happen differently than the org chart says. Official processes get routed around. I diagnose the gaps and close them.

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

01

I do the work, not just the slides

I build systems, run meetings, create documents, and own execution alongside your team. I’m not interested in just handing you a Powerpoint.

02

A documentarian’s ear

Two decades of interviewing and investigating give me an unusual ability to hear what’s really going on beneath the surface of your organization.

03

Mission-driven experience

I’ve co-founded nonprofits. I understand stakeholder dynamics, values-led decisions, and why a corporate playbook often doesn’t fit mission driven work.

04

Built to make you independent

I’m not trying to be indispensable. Every system I build, I train your team to own.
