Quick About Me

After a lot of poor decision-making, I dropped out of college, and found myself flipping burgers.So I joined the Army to fix my discipline/mindset.It worked.

Behavioral Health Specialist (Active Duty - Army)
May 2018 – May 2022

Counseling 1000+ patients was an extremely valuable experience, but I preferred operations.
I was promoted to Executive Assistant to the Installation Director of Psychology. He oversaw services for 30,000 patients.
I was also promoted to Non-Commissioned Officer in Charge of our 30-team outpatient clinic
I managed daily operations and overhauled our systems and workflows to accommodate our new virtual services during a chaotic COVID-19 transition.

Researched, wrote, and updated clinic policies.
Interviewed, onboarded, and trained staff.
Oversaw compliance with accredited (JCO) inspections.
Managed front desk and customer service team.
Researched and improved insurance billing strategies (found $100k+ in optimizations).
Identified and improved outdated systemic work processes.
Conducted individual/group counseling, intakes, safety assessments, administered psychological testing.

I became obsessed with startups.After the Army, I became 1 of 5 Executive Personal Assistants (EPA) supporting an extremely ambitious CEO at Mawer Capital.

Sr. Executive Personal Assistant
May 2022 – Aug 2024

I loved the chaos and intensity, I said “yes” to everything, and after 3 months was promoted to Sr. EPA, supervising my CEO’s (now 5) other assistants.
I built a dynamic, innovative CEO support team.
I became involved in nearly every aspect of the business and managed many departments (recruiting, finance, events, social media, and more).

When ChatGPT-3.5 was released, I became obsessed with AI.So I quit my job and moved to SF.
During the day, I worked as operations manager at the AI Law and Innovation Institute and Legal Startup Garage.At night, I pursued a failed stint in entrepreneurship.

Interim Executive Assistant: building out the Executive Assistant system, onboarding eventual full-time EA.

I eventually concluded that what I am best at and enjoy is supporting disruptive startup tech founders.Today, I serve as Chief of Staff at an innovative video production and TV network startup to build the "Netflix of Business TV"
