  • Led regional teams to deliver consistency in Tribal affairs, compliance reviews, and program rollouts under tight timelines


  • If you’re dealing with…


    Regions/teams all doing it differently ↣  I’ll align people and process across offices so execution is consistent and fast with clean workflows, roles, and cadence. 


    Crisis readiness gaps ↣ I’ll build continuity plans, run simulations, and leave you with tested, usable playbooks.


    Data that doesn’t drive action and dashboards that don’t match decisions ↣ I’ll design data-to-decision tools and reporting that leaders actually use.


    Short timelines, high scrutiny. You need quality work under pressure and I’ll bring a steady hand, clear communication, and tight QA so the work holds up.


    Stalled special projects, the “must-do” initiative keeps slipping. I’ll step in as a fractional COO / program lead to plan, staff, unblock, and deliver.

     

    How I Work

    ↣ Fractional COO / Program Director
    Stand-in leadership to operationalize strategy, set cadence, and deliver outcomes.


    ↣ Special Project Surge
    8–12 week push to get a priority initiative out the door—planned, resourced, delivered.


    ↣ Continuity & Incident Readiness
    Playbooks, exercises, and after-action improvements that keep services running.


    ↣ Data-to-Decision Enablement
    Simple, decision-ready tools (GIS/visuals/scorecards) that shorten time to action.


    ↣ Cross-Team Alignment
    Roles, workflows, and procedures that reduce noise and increase follow-through.


    Remote-first, used to large distributed teams, and comfortable coordinating government, nonprofit, private, and Tribal partners.
