  • Identifying and implementing operational efficiencies and scalable, repeatable processes.
  • Setting up and managing tool integrations and workflows to improve team coordination and streamline collaboration.

  • Proficient with project management tools such as Jira and Asana-with a passion for using tools and systems to drive efficiency and clarity.
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and skilled at creating clarity for others.
