About
I'm an operations leader and CPA who builds the systems that make organizations actually run. Over 12+ years across technology, financial services, hospitality, and global growth-stage environments, I've designed end-to-end operational infrastructure from zero.
As a founding team member at Atlassian, I built a new division's operational foundation from scratch across 20+ countries, owning governance frameworks, financial controls, compliance processes (SOX, GDPR), and $10M+ in annual budget management. The work spanned implementing enterprise platforms for 10,000+ users, directing $1M+ in COVID-19 emergency response, and managing 75+ global nonprofit partnerships at 98% SLA compliance.
Today I consult as a fractional Chief of Staff, helping growth-stage organizations design scalable operating systems and AI-enabled workflows delivering 60%+ efficiency gains.
