Are you the CEO/Founder/Entrepreneur of a small but growing company? Is the chaos of too many distractions, too much to do, and every decision point heading your way—hampering your company’s progress and success? Are you eager to move the needle? I get it! With years of experience in founding and running companies across industries, I know the challenges of scaling and growth. From my transportation company for special ed students to my ecommerce company specializing in gift giving for baby-boomer and Gen-x women, to my 17-year experience running an EdTech company with two mergers in three years and many pivots, I have navigated changes in the industry, economy, and technology. As your collaborative leadership confidant, I am your sounding board for ideas and strategies. I bring a fresh and unbiased perspective, as I listen-to-learn and help identify, analyze, and develop great solutions that work for your company and teams. I create alignment between strategy, operations, culture, and vision — so you can focus on being the CEO. My specialties include working with people, culture, processes, and tools, ultimately allowing better productivity, communication, creativity, retention, efficiencies, and growth. I also analyze and streamline systems (as needed), such as financial (cash flow, easy-to-understand P&L, AP, AR, budgets, projections, etc.); hiring, on- and off-boarding, benefits, payroll, continuous performance management, app and hardware provisioning; remote work situations; tech stack review; communication tools and cadence for individuals, teams, exec, and investors/board; sales operations; customer success operations; knowledge base with SOPS; active and archival file structure and storage systems. As someone who has successfully owned and run companies, I understand the importance of having a clear vision, placing people and culture first, and implementing good financial systems, including detailed revenue projections and operational budgets. CEOs/Owners trust me because I listen to understand where they are, where they want to be, and help them get there.
