People Operations & executive support leader helping remote teams scale with high-trust ownership.
What I'm looking for
I help founders and leadership teams stay focused on growth through hands-on People Operations and executive support. With 10+ years across global corporations and 7+ in globally distributed US tech startups, I’ve owned HR systems, executive coordination, and business administration while keeping operations lean and reliable.
In my most recent role, I ran People Operations, Executive Support, and Business Administration—renegotiating HR platform costs by 60%, cutting 35% of SaaS spend, and serving as the CEO’s high-trust point of contact across business and personal matters. I supported a C-suite of 6, managed full-cycle onboarding/offboarding, payroll and benefits administration, and led remote culture and events using limited budgets, all with low ego and high ownership.
