I scale startups and midsize companies in healthcare technology

Building the operations
that help solutions
go to market.

I bring the operational backbone organizations need to grow — compliance, HR, financial oversight, and process — paired with a Sales & Marketing background that takes a solution from built to bought. I've stood up the internal systems that let a company scale, and I've built the outbound engines that get that solution in front of the right buyers.

This is where I step in.

About

I am an operations and GTM specialist based in Los Angeles, CA with 5+ years in healthcare technology and B2B SaaS. I build systems that make internal processes flow between different departments to deliver results across Sales, Marketing, Compliance, Human Resources, and IT.

I've worked alongside Directors and above to report results in growth efforts. This is where I identified I am most impactful at work that lies at the intersection of client support, business operations, and GTM strategy. Connecting the tools and building the workflows that ensures employees are set up for success is where I find fulfillment. Active member of Wizard of Ops and Marketing Ops Professionals.

Getting Arbora Health to full HIPAA compliance

At Arbora Health I completed a project to get us HIPAA compliant using Vanta. It took approximately one month and gave us the ability to tell clients we are capable of safely managing their data.

I also migrated our support knowledge base into Zendesk and built an AI agent on top of it for customer success. It never made it onto the platform because leadership wanted to try a different vendor.

Open to RevOps, GTM Operations, and Sales/Marketing Operations roles at scaling B2B SaaS or healthcare technology teams. I'll get back within 6–12 hours.
