Embedded leadership —
without the full-time hire.
FRACTIONAL FOUNDER | CHIEF OF STAFF
I join your team 1–3 days a week as both strategic partner to your ED or CEO and executive leader of your organization, attending meetings, making decisions, building systems, and keeping things moving.

This isn't consulting. I'm embedded, accountable for results, and building infrastructure that honors how your organization actually works and works to fix what doesn't fit your organization.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

Network Network

Strategic coordination

  • Thinking partner for your Executive Director or CEO
  • Translate vision into roadmaps with clear owners and deadlines

Clock Clock

Real-time support

  • Attend key leadership meetings
  • Solve problems as they emerge
  • Make decisions alongside your team, not from a distance

WHO THIS IS FOR

  • Growing organizations

    $500K–$5M budget. Things are working, but your old processes are slowing you down and you’re not ready for a full-time COS.

  • 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 SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

3 Months

  • Stuck projects moving with clear ownership
  • Leadership time protected for highest-value work
  • Key operational systems in place and in use
  • Map vs. territory gaps identified

6 Months

  • Strategic initiatives executing on time
  • Team has rhythms that actually work
  • Decisions made faster, with more clarity
  • Infrastructure that scales with growth

12 Months

  • Organization runs smoothly without me
  • Team owns the systems we built together
  • Map matches the territory
  • Ready to hire in-house or reduce fractional hours
