Program, Strategy & Ops Generalist | Design Talent Recruitment

About

I work at the intersection of operations, learning, and systems design, usually in teams that are figuring things out. I’ve helped early-stage startups deliver programs, build hiring funnels, align partners and design internal processes from scratch. I don’t have traditional credentials in most of the industries I’ve worked in, I figure it out through conversations, pattern recognition, and persistence. If something’s broken or ambiguous, I enjoy building the scaffolding around it. Calm structure, not chaos. Clear outcomes, not noise.
