Summary
FAQs
What types of organizations do you typically work with?
I primarily support nonprofits, professional associations, and small mission-driven teams. I work best with organizations that value clear communication, trust, and steady execution.
Do you work hourly or on a retainer?
Most of my work is fractional and retainer-based, supporting organizations 10–25 hours per week. Hourly arrangements are possible for short-term or clearly scoped projects.
What kinds of tasks do you handle day to day?
I support the operational backbone of organizations, including events, membership programs, board and committee coordination, sponsor and vendor management, communications, and internal workflows. My role is to take ownership of execution so leaders can focus on strategy.
Are you more of an assistant or an operations partner?
I function as an operations partner. While my work includes administrative support, I’m typically brought in to manage systems, processes, and follow-through—not just complete tasks as they arise.
How quickly can you get up to speed with a new organization?
I’m used to stepping into complex environments and getting oriented quickly. I typically begin with a brief onboarding period to understand systems, priorities, and communication preferences, then move into steady ongoing support.
Do you offer coaching as part of your operations work?
Operations and coaching are offered separately. Through Ember & Edge, I provide 1:1 somatic coaching focused on nervous-system awareness and sustainability, but my fractional operations work is practical, execution-focused, and role-based.
What makes you different from a traditional virtual assistant?
I bring a systems-level perspective and take responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks. Clients work with me because they want reliability, judgment, and calm execution—not constant check-ins or micromanagement.
