I run an independent RevOps consulting practice, typically 2-3 concurrent part-time engagements with B2B and SaaS clients, with 6+ years across marketing, sales and operations, now focused on RevOps, and 26+ HubSpot certifications including Certified Trainer. My work sits across the full stack: from C-suite reporting architecture down to custom-coded HubSpot workflow actions and app development, wherever the platform's native tooling stops being enough. I also build and run NetworkDays, a HubSpot app for business-day workflow actions.

My background in marketing, PR and compliance, business development and sales operations is why I build systems around how teams actually sell and report. Recent work includes a HubSpot Enterprise implementation with Stripe attribution and AI agents for customer success, ongoing agency work on renewal automation and custom-coded workflow actions, and a multi-company CRM consolidation with the reporting layer leadership runs on.

Training is part of most engagements. As a HubSpot Certified Trainer I run remote, role-based sessions for admins, sales, marketing and ops teams on their own portal, so what they learn matches the system they work in every day.

Working independently means the operational infrastructure I build has to survive contact with messy reality on my own: mergers, migrations, manual processes that don't scale, fixed with platform configuration, custom code, and AI where it earns its keep. It also means I sometimes hit projects too large for one person, with no shared pool of expertise to pull from when a problem sits outside my depth. That's what Value-First is for me: a panel of experienced practitioners I can bring onto larger engagements, a shared knowledge base to sharpen my thinking against, and a peer group pushing AI-native infrastructure, which is where I want my practice to keep moving.
