What I'm looking for
I’m an AI-first Chief of Staff and strategic operator with 9+ years of experience partnering directly with founders and executive leadership to scale high-growth organizations. I turn founder vision into structured, accountable initiatives—building the systems, workflows, and operational clarity that multiply leadership effectiveness.
At Tribe X Digital, I served as the operational brain behind scaling from 12 to 70+ employees, owning cross-functional operations and AI-powered workflow automation. I built accountability and communication frameworks from scratch, improving execution speed by 25%+ and boosting cross-functional communication efficiency by 20% while reducing operational drag by 15%—and I’ve continued this approach as Head of Growth, Marketing & Technology.
