Hey, I'm Jess!

2-1

 I help founders identify bottlenecks, hire the right support, and create the structure their business needs to grow. 

My love for operations started early. Organizing school projects as a kid was just the beginning. I went on to build a national skincare brand from scratch, carried in 20 retailers across Canada, then pivoted into a consulting and coaching company supporting other female founders in the cosmetics and skincare space.

I built both businesses from the ground up: product development, sales, launches, funnels, marketing, hiring, finances. All of it. I wore every hat, learned a lot of lessons, and consumed every book, podcast, and course I could get my hands on...

That's when I realized my strength wasn't just operations. It was helping founders build the foundation for their company.

The right priorities. The right people. The right systems. And making sure all three worked together.

 

With nearly a decade in online business, I've worked inside 6 and 7-figure companies, helping founders get the right people in the right seats, build systems that hold, and create the operational foundation that lets them lead instead of manage. Along the way I've trained with some of the best in the online business space, completed advanced leadership and software training, and gotten certified in the tools my clients actually use.  
 
My philosophy: when the plan, people, and process are aligned, businesses run with ease, and Visionaries get to focus on the work only they can do.

Why Hiring Became My Specialty

Over the years, this one pattern kept showing up. Founders would reach a point where they couldn't keep doing everything themselves. There weren't enough hours in the day, they were feeling burned out, and they knew they needed help. But they weren't sure:

  • who to hire
  • what role they needed
  • where to find candidates
  • how to evaluate them
  • how to avoid making a costly mistake

I found myself helping clients navigate those decisions again and again, and realized, 'Hey, I'm actually pretty good at this!"

What I discovered is that successful hiring isn't just whipping up a job description and reviewing about resumes. It's about understanding the business behind the role first.

Mission: I create clarity, structure, and relief for growing businesses so founders can do the work they love, lead with intention, and actually enjoy the life they built their business for.

When I'm not working behind the scenes, I'm embracing the slower pace of life on Vancouver Island. Forest hikes, spin class, and pickleball are current faves!

I can also often be found curled up with a good book in front of the fire, tending to my garden, or planning the next travel adventure with my husband over a great meal.
