Fractional operations leadership

Your startup isn't struggling because you lack vision or talent. You need support because you’ve had incredible success as a founder, so you’re teetering on the edge of massive growth potential.

As a generalist with deep expertise working with startups, I step into gaps during inflection points for pre-series A teams when:

  • Growth is accelerating

  • Decisions and execution are slowing

  • Hiring may not be fixing the problem

  • The next raise requires operational proof

Schedule a consultation.

  • When you need senior-level leadership without a full-time hire, I’ll help you achieve a goal in 6-9 months.

    Signal & Trust steps in as your embedded operator — bringing structure, clear priorities, and trusted decision support. I’ll help you stabilize, scale, and navigate transition by aligning people, systems, and strategy so your team can move confidently through growth and change while hitting required goals.

  • I work with portfolio teams during critical transitions:

    • Post-investment operating reset

    • Pre-raise alignment and milestone clarity

    • Leadership structure before scale

    • Founder overwhelm / decision bottlenecks

    The goal: reduce execution risk and protect your investment by strengthening operating discipline early.

  • I support accelerator cohorts through mentorship and targeted workshops focused on founding team design, role clarity, decision architecture, and early-stage operating systems. My goal is simple: reduce execution risk early so portfolio companies can hit milestones faster and scale with confidence.

  • Not every challenge fits neatly into a box.

    Whether you’re preparing for an acquisition, rebuilding trust after turnover, or tackling a complex problem, I’ll design a partnership that meets your organization where it is. Let’s start with a conversation to clarify what’s happening in order to chart the path forward together.
