I pride myself on being a bespoke consultant, working with only a select few clients at a time, to provide the utmost attention to each one. With a strong entrepreneurial background, I love helping my clients create systems that are integrated, seamless, efficient, and most importantly, align with existing business processes.in utilizing low-code tools to increase productivity, transparency, and autonomy

With my extensive background in utilizing low-code tools to increase productivity, transparency, and autonomy, I pride myself on getting to know your business and objectives as quickly as possible, so that I can start to feel like a key member of your team, rather than an outsider. I focus on Airtable, API integrations, and other software platforms to enhance automation and streamline processes.

Ways to Work Together:

  1. Coaching
    1. I offer my clients private coaching personalized to their specific needs. Most of the time, we can achieve numerous small wins while also working towards larger goals. During these coaching sessions, we will work through the foundations of your processes, dive deep into the platforms you are working in, and you will develop the muscle memory to feel confident moving forward on your own. Coaching is a great way to start working together and define what a potential project might look like, with very low risk.
    2. Coaching packages start at a minimum of 5 hours and are priced at $300/hour, with sessions taking place on Google Meet (unless otherwise specified by the client).
  2. Projects
    1. I prefer to work on a phase-based outcome approach, rather than a time-and-materials approach. This encourages me to be as efficient as possible, with a low time-to-value for my clients, and also leverages my decade of experience working with low-code tools. The first phase of working together will always include discovery conversations with key stakeholders. We will collaboratively define what the first development phase will look like and most often tackle low-hanging fruit that comes up along the way. Instead of creating an exhaustive, comprehensive project roadmap, I prefer to shape the direction of each phase one at a time, allowing for flexibility so that the project can grow or shrink as we work together.
    2. Projects usually start with a $5,000 discovery and each subsequent and agreed upon phase is $12,000.
  3. Fractional
    1. My most preferred way of working with clients is on a fractional basis. In this model, I become an embedded member of your team for the long term. This model allows for the most flexibility, benefits from my experience as both a leader and a hands-on developer, and is where I can bring the most value. Looking for an expert to sit down with and discuss strategy, someone to lead a team towards larger goals, or someone who knows that I'm in your corner when you need me? Fractional is the way to go.
    2. My fractional packages range from $5,000 to $15,000/month, depending on the level of commitment you are looking for.
