Services

I help organizations successfully launch new projects, programs, and companies. With a career built in and around start-ups and “white space” initiatives, I’ve become known for my versatility—equally at ease shaping bold ideas and rolling up my sleeves to bring them to life. I combine deep curiosity with a low-ego, collaborative approach that helps teams move forward with clarity and impact.

Strategic Planning
&
Financial Modeling

A good strategic plan serves as the roadmap for success, aligning vision, resources, and action to navigate challenges and seize opportunities with purpose and precision. I guide organizations through a structured process, which helps clarify a vision, define actionable goals, and develop a practical roadmap to achieve success. My approach ensures your business is prepared to navigate complexity with confidence.

​

  • Identify Strategic Priorities & Set Objectives: Focus efforts on what matters most, with clear, measurable goals.

​

  • Operational Planning & Roadmaps: Develop detailed execution plans to drive progress.

​

Innovative Projects &
Start-up Support

I have years of experience working with organizations, helping them to identify unmet needs, craft innovative solutions, and build viable business models that ignite growth.  I leverage my experience with design thinking, lean methodologies and agile development, to assist my clients in clarifying what the problem or need actually is, developing and testing solutions and scaling the work effectively. â€‹

​

Ecosystems & Innovation Pipelines

I support organizations that are looking to develop functional, healthy partnerships and regions that are looking to build and sustain emerging ecosystems.  Productive collaboration among multiple organizations is almost always messy, and can be painful.  I have experience building operational frameworks that not only support but also sustainably scale innovative partnerships.  â€‹

  • Accelerator, Incubator & Investment Support Programs: Build ecosystems to accelerate growth and attract investment. â€‹
