The operational and financial architecture your scaling company is missing.
I help founders and leadership teams build institutional-grade operating systems, automate finance, and scale without the chaos. Built by an operator who scaled one 10x, not a career consultant.
Why operators hit a ceiling
The three walls every flex operator hits.
Unit economics
Flying blind on the numbers.
You know occupancy. You don't know contribution margin by bay, suite, or location. Pricing runs on gut feel, expansion runs on hope.
Founder dependence
The founder is the ops manual.
Billing, renewals, vendor issues, escalations, all of it routes through you. The business runs on your memory, so it can't scale past you.
Systems sprawl
Software everywhere, no system.
Space management platform, CRM, QuickBooks, spreadsheets, none of them talking. Data everywhere, answers nowhere.
Who this is for
Built for scaling companies.
From founders outgrowing founder-led operations, to mid-market teams answering to a board or institutional capital. If you've hit the ceiling where hustle and spreadsheets no longer scale, we build the operational and financial architecture that lets the business run without depending on one person. Industry-agnostic — the same operating layer applies whether you run services, software, real estate, or physical operations.

Method
Every system I build runs on AI by default.
Monthly close, KPI reporting, member communications, vendor follow-ups. Built once, automated, then mostly running themselves. That's how a fractional engagement stays lean instead of becoming another salary.
Built once
Monthly close, KPI reporting, member comms, vendor follow-ups — designed and stood up the right way a single time.
Automated
Workflows run themselves after rollout. The system keeps the cadence, not the person.
Mostly self-running
That's how a fractional engagement stays lean instead of becoming another salary.
COO-Level Leadership.
Without the Full-Time Price Tag.
Most operators don't need a full-time COO — they need the right systems, the right operator, at the right time.
Save up to $100K Per Year
Get C-suite level operations leadership at a fraction of the cost. No salary, no benefits, no equity dilution.
Immediate Impact
No ramp-up period. I bring a proven playbook on day one and start fixing what's broken immediately.
Right-Sized Engagement
Need 10 hours/month or 40? Scale up during a launch, scale back during steady state. You pay for what you need.
Operator-Level Experience
25+ years running real operations — not consulting theory. I've sat in the seat you're trying to fill.
