I love working with teams that have ambitious goals but appreciate the systems and collaboration it takes to bring those ideas to life.

@sabinesmith
Creative Ops & Project Manager leading complex client projects, aligning cross-functional teams, and building scalable processes.
What I'm looking for
I've spent the last 10+ years leading cross-functional projects for brands like Logitech and West Elm. My experience spans global product launches, creative operations, digital production, and client delivery, with a focus on building scalable workflows, improving processes, and keeping teams aligned from kickoff through launch.
I'm known for turning chaos into a clear plan. I enjoy untangling complex projects, bringing people together around a shared goal, and creating systems that help teams move faster without sacrificing quality. Whether I'm partnering with creative teams, product managers, marketers, or external agencies, I lead with clear communication, collaboration, and a calm, solutions-oriented approach.
Outside of my corporate career, I'm a certified Pilates instructor with a master's degree in Integrative Health, Clinical Nutrition, and Herbalism. Teaching movement has made me a stronger project manager—it reinforces the importance of listening, adapting, and meeting people where they are.
I'm looking for a remote Project Manager, Creative Operations, Client Delivery, or Program Manager role where I can help teams stay aligned, improve the way work gets done, and deliver meaningful results.
