Tailored for: Founder hiring Chief of Staff / Founder's Office
Summary
I've been the person founders lean on — Chief of Staff at one ESG company and Founder's Office Associate at another — orchestrating product, customer success, pre-sales and partnerships, and building the enablement engine that makes a small team punch above its weight.
What I bring
- Cross-functional orchestration across product, CS, professional services and GTM.
- Pre-sales and RFP engine that cut deal-prep from weeks to days.
- Partnerships and enablement stood up across global markets.
- An AI-native operating system (Skills · Agents · Hooks · Tasks) that scales founder leverage.
