Founder, HIGHPOINT
Strategic Operations Partner
Engineer’s mind. Founder’s grit. COO execution.
I work with women founders and CEOs at the point where vision and execution need to meet. Whether they are scaling a business that has outgrown its current structure, integrating an acquisition, or building something new with capital behind it, the work is the same. Take what is in your head and make it operational.
My background spans over 15 years across engineering, corporate strategy, and entrepreneurship. I have worked inside large multinational organizations and early-stage companies, co-founded and operated a consumer brand, and earned an Executive MBA. That range is not incidental. It is what allows me to bring structure and discipline from large organizations into the practical reality of a growing business.
I started my career in engineering, which shaped how I think. Systems, sequencing, dependencies, decision flow. That lens follows me into every engagement and it is one of the things founders tell me they value most. Not just strategic thinking but structured thinking. The ability to look at a complex situation and identify what actually matters and what order things need to happen in.
Running my own business taught me what corporate experience alone cannot. Founders operate under pressure, with real stakes and rarely complete information. My role is to be the partner who brings clarity to that environment.
I started HIGHPOINT because I saw a consistent gap. Capable, experienced founders navigating real complexity without a senior operational partner at the table. Not a consultant. Not a coach. A working partner who could think alongside them and help move the business forward.
I work primarily with women-led businesses because I know that women founders are not just running companies. They are navigating a decision load that most of their male counterparts simply do not carry. Business decisions, leadership decisions, and the weight of everything else that lands on women by default. Reducing that load and building something that does not depend entirely on them is not just good operations. It is why I do this work.
The vision is yours. My job is to make it executable.
