Operations-focused founder with 7+ years managing end-to-end business operations, scheduling, and financial reconciliation.
What I'm looking for
I’m an operations-focused founder and operator with 7+ years managing end-to-end business operations, client lifecycles, scheduling, and financial reconciliation for a service business generating $5K+ monthly. My work has been featured in VoyageBaltimore Magazine for entrepreneurial impact and client experience.
As Founder & Operator of Hair by Joy (Euphoric Styles LLC), I served 2–3 clients daily and coordinated sessions ranging from 2 to 10 hours using Acuity Scheduling, producing $5k in monthly revenue across 70–85+ bookings per month. I handle invoicing, expense tracking, and financial reconciliation independently, while using AI tools (ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot) to streamline communications, automate workflows, and strengthen business documentation.
I also bring experience across fast-paced, client-facing environments—supporting high-volume scheduling, payment tracking, and front desk operations as a Dance Instructor, and maintaining strict safety protocols and detailed care documentation as a Medspa Bodywork Practitioner and in-home caregiver/Medication Technician. I’m seeking a remote operations or coordinator role with a growth path toward project management or financial operations.
