Case Studies
Real problems. Real results.
A look at the challenges I've helped organizations solve — and the measurable outcomes we built together on the other side.
- Technology Firm · Fractional COO
Driving Operational Excellence & Revenue Growth
The Challenge
A small tech firm faced inconsistent invoicing, error-prone payroll, fragmented accounts tracking, and outdated vendor systems — all limiting growth and creating compliance risk.
The Approach
Built structured processes for invoicing, timekeeping, AP/AR, and payroll. Negotiated a new payroll provider and led a strategic renegotiation of the firm's largest client contract.
The Result
Reduced financial & payroll errors by 75% · 100% on-time payments · Client contract grew from $1.5M to $7M over five years
- Community Business Organization · Executive Lead
Revitalizing a Community Organization — Brand, Membership & Funding
The Challenge
An established organization had stagnant membership, outdated branding, a fundraising event plateaued at $40K, and weakened community partnerships.
The Approach
Led a full-scale rebrand, modernized digital platforms, repositioned the membership value proposition, secured $65K in grants, and overhauled the annual fundraising event structure.
The Result
20% membership growth in year one · $65K in grants secured · Annual event revenue increased 600% — from $40K to $280K
- Community Event · Operational Leadership
Transforming a Local Festival into a Citywide Destination
The Challenge
A community festival held in a parking lot had plateaued at 10,000 attendees. Leadership wanted to transform it into a regional destination.
The Approach
Spearheaded a full rebrand, relocated to a closed city street, built four stages, coordinated 200+ volunteers and 280 vendors (including compliance with local/state health and safety regulations), and led multi-channel marketing campaigns.
The Result
Attendance grew from 10,000 to 65,000 over two days — a 6.5x increase · Record vendor participation · Elevated to a premier regional cultural event
