Hi, I’m Lisa.
I believe meaningful work deserves momentum, not burnout. That’s why I help founders go from “it’s all on me” to “this is actually working.”
I’m a strategic business operator and systems thinker. I’m the person teams call when they’re stuck in the weeds and need someone to diagnose what’s not working, prioritize what matters most, and create a clear path forward. I bring structure, clarity, and follow-through so fast-moving teams can scale without wasting time or energy.
Over the past 15+ years, I’ve led operations across very different environments from managing $750M Navy contracts to helping the instafamous parenting brand Big Little Feelings reach over 500,000 families through digital products and programs. Not the most linear background, I know, but if you don’t think planning a ship repair availability and a social media content calendar for 3.5 million followers have anything in common, you would be wrong — and I’d love to tell you why.
At my core, I’m a connector of people, priorities, and execution. I spot the throughlines others miss and act as the glue that keeps things moving. I’ve built a trusted network of experts across marketing, e-comm, social, legal, ops, and design. When a project calls for it, I bring in the right partners, keep things aligned, and make sure what gets built actually works.

SOUND FAMILIAR?
You’ve launched something people love but the backend is duct-taped together and only you know how it all works.
You have a million ideas and no bandwidth.
You don’t need a full team, but you do need help making smart decisions and getting things across the finish line.
You’ve outgrown your systems, your workflows, or your org chart and you’re ready for structure that scales.
If any of that hits home, we should talk!
WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER
Flexible Support That Meets You Where You Are
Fractional Operator / Chief of Staff
Embedded operator and execution partner to help manage priorities, team flow, and internal operations with clarity and rhythm.
Ideal for: founders and teams in growth mode or orgs without a full ops team
Retainer Support
Flexible ops support for founders who want ongoing, part-time execution alongside big-picture guidance. I plug in across weeks or months as an extension of your team — helping with whatever’s most urgent or important.
Ideal for: Founders and lean teams who need dependable, ongoing execution support — but don’t have (or want) a full-time ops hire.
Advisory Support
Ongoing thought partnership and operational guidance — without the bandwidth of full execution. You get a strategic sounding board for priorities, plans, and decision-making — async or in regular check-ins.
Ideal for: solo founders or teams who want sharp input without bringing on a full-time operator
Project-Based Consulting
Have a project that’s been on the back burner for weeks, months — maybe even years? I help you pick it back up, make a plan, and actually get it out into the world.
Ideal for: digital product launches, workflow overhauls, new offers, org shifts
In Their Words
Let’s Connect
If you’re building something meaningful — and want clarity, strategy, and execution support from someone who’s been at the helm — I’d love to hear from you.
