I've built scalable operating systems for education technology and startup programmes, from user onboarding and learning delivery to partnerships and cross-functional execution.

As Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer at VarsityScape, I direct business operations supporting product delivery, academy partnerships, and organizational growth. I built onboarding systems that brought on 5,000+ users in six months and led programme operations across five academy launches.

At AI for Kids, I helped plan and launch the AI for Educators Accelerator, contributing to 150+ registrations and sustaining 30%+ active learner participation. I also co-developed capstone assessment frameworks to measure practical skill acquisition and programme effectiveness.

I've also built community, partnership, and academy operations at Delta Startups and RMA Talent Productions Xchange, growing engagement, strengthening delivery workflows, and creating systems teams can use to execute consistently.
