Product Strategist/COO/ Business Strategist

I help founders turn complexity into clarity and ideas into scalable execution. With deep experience as a Product Strategist, Fractional COO, and Business Strategist, I work alongside founders and leadership teams to design products, build operational structure, and implement systems that actually work in the real world. I specialize in stepping into the “in-between” space where strategy meets execution bringing order to fast-moving businesses, early-stage startups, and scaling companies that have outgrown their current processes. What I Do Best 🔹 Product Strategy & Direction • Product vision, roadmap creation, and prioritization • MVP definition, feature scoping, and go-to-market alignment • User experience and workflow-driven product design • Cross-functional alignment between product, development, and stakeholders 🔹 Fractional COO / Operations Leadership • Operational structure for growing teams • Workflow audits and optimization • SOP creation and documentation for scalability • Leadership support and accountability frameworks (EOS-aligned) • Process design across sales, delivery, support, and internal ops 🔹 Business Strategy & Execution • Strategic planning and execution roadmaps • Systems-first business design • Automation-driven workflows and tech stack optimization • KPI and performance tracking • Revenue operations and operational efficiency How I Work I don’t just advise; I build, implement, and refine alongside your team. My approach is: ✔ Practical and systems-focused ✔ Grounded in real execution, not theory ✔ Designed to scale without burning people out I’m especially effective in: • Founder-led businesses • SaaS and tech-enabled companies • Service businesses transitioning into scalable operations • Teams that need structure without bureaucracy Tools & Platforms I Frequently Work With • Product & Project Management: monday.com, GoHighLevel, ClickUp, Asana • Documentation & Ops: Google Workspace, Notion, Confluence • Automation: Zapier, Make, native platform automations • Strategy Frameworks: EOS, Agile, Lean, systems thinking If You’re Looking For… • A strategic partner who can think big and execute cleanly • Someone who can bring order without killing momentum • A fractional leader who cares about your business like it’s their own Let’s connect
