Building & Scaling World-Class, People-Centered Operations

I partner with nonprofit, social enterprise, and human services organizations to bridge the gap between high-level strategy and operational reality. I specialize in a "Human Services Modernization" framework: ensuring that systems, technology, and financial structures are robust enough to support mission-critical work without burning out the people behind it. AI doesn't replace people; we achieve more, better, faster by partnering AI with HI.
