About Me

I’m a systems thinker, a pattern-breaker, and a calm presence in complex moments.

I’ve helped startups, global orgs, and founder-led teams realign strategy, rebuild trust, and install systems that actually work — without losing what made the work matter.

How I Help

I don’t (just) run workshops.
I fix what’s stuck.

When the path isn’t clear and everything feels urgent, I help tune the system, reconnect the team, and move forward with focus.

Not as a vendor. As a partner.
