@drexelking

Fractional operations consultant at King & Co. who cut work-order processing to 3 minutes with automation.

At King & Co. Consulting LLC, I provide fractional operations leadership, project and change management, and financial reviews for small businesses, nonprofits, and lenders. For Whitehead Environmental Services, I introduced SOPs and automation that cut work-order processing from 10–20+ minutes to 3 minutes, recovering staff hours and administrative costs.

At Magnolia, I managed cross-functional projects and delivered 47 with a 96% on-time rate. I also designed leadership development programs at Baylor University and founded Black Fathers’ Waco, where I lead volunteer efforts supporting fathers and family health.
