THE PROBLEM: Healthcare startups, while brimming with innovation, often struggle with the operational complexities of the industry. This can lead to costly mistakes, delayed timelines, and ultimately, hinder their growth and potential for success. Venture Capital firms invest in promising ideas, but often their portfolio companies may lack the operational experience to execute effectively. This is where I come in.

MY SOLUTION: I am an independent healthcare operations consultant specializing in helping early-stage companies build scalable and efficient operational foundations. I act as a kick-start to your operational team, providing the expertise and hands-on support needed to navigate the intricate healthcare landscape and accelerate growth. Think of me as a plug-and-play operations expert.

My Services:

  • Operational Strategy & Planning: Developing and implementing strategic operational plans aligned with the company's vision and growth trajectory. This includes defining key performance indicators (KPIs) and establishing processes for tracking progress.

  • Process Optimization & Implementation: Streamlining existing workflows, identifying bottlenecks, and implementing best practices to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

  • Staffing & Training: Helping start-ups build and scale their teams, providing structure to staffing, training, and onboarding to ensure they have the right talent in place.
