𝐀𝐬 𝐚 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐎𝐎, 𝐈 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡. I bring 15+ years of experience across leadership, operations, project management, strategy, sales, customer experience, and HR. I help businesses identify what’s getting in the way, set priorities, uncover opportunities, and build connected systems and processes that support lasting growth. I specialize in helping businesses move from red to black, from chaos to calm, and from “we’ll figure it out” to clear, documented ways of working. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: ▹ Operations reviews and strategic planning: Identify bottlenecks, clarify priorities, and build a focused plan for moving forward. ▹ Team alignment and accountability: Turn goals into clear ownership, coordinated work, and consistent follow-through. ▹ Systems and process improvement: Make day-to-day work easier to understand, manage, and sustain as the business grows. ▹ SOPs and documentation: Create playbooks, workflows, training materials, and knowledge bases that help teams work with confidence. ▹ Tools, reporting, automation, and AI: Improve visibility, productivity, and insight using the right mix of systems for your business. My background spans SaaS, e-commerce, professional services, charitable organizations, property management, and brick-and-mortar hospitality. I’ve led both remote and in-person teams, and I adapt quickly to different business models, team structures, and technology. I hit the ground running, drawing on proven principles from The 4 Disciplines of Execution (4DX) and Scaling Up to clarify priorities, strengthen accountability, and get progress moving quickly. I bring marketing and entrepreneurship education, technical writing training, and a practical approach to implementation. I’m bilingual in Spanish and English, Top Rated Plus on Upwork, and have a 100% Job Success Score. What has always set me apart is my determination: I don’t back away from a challenge. When a problem gets complicated, I dig into what’s driving it, look beyond the obvious options, and keep working through possibilities until I land on a solution that delivers on all fronts. I genuinely care about helping the businesses I support thrive and grow. That means being a trusted partner to leadership—helping turn goals and priorities into results—and making sure teams are heard, involved in shaping changes that affect their work, and set up for long-term success. If this resonates with you, please reach out. I’d be delighted to discuss what you’re envisioning for your business and how I can support those goals.
