🪂 I parachute into Seed-to-Series B startups (5–35 FTEs) and turn cross-functional friction—between Sales, CS, Product, and Finance—into an operating system everyone actually follows. I don’t throw playbooks at your problems. I build systems with your team—so the fixes stick, the founder can step back, and scale becomes repeatable. 🧠What that looks like: Onboarding dropped from 18 days → 6 100% NRR maintained while covering both Sales + CS leadership gaps Board-ready dashboards replaced spreadsheet sprawl in SaaSgrid Hiring budget cut 25% while improving close rate Bookkeeping close time down 10+ days Best-fit clients: funded SaaS founders who just hit a growth spurt and now watch onboarding slide, renewals stall, hiring get messy, and cash flow go foggy. 📍 Based in St. Louis. Powered by strong coffee, live music, and a toddler with Series A negotiation skills.
