Meet our team of operations experts and nerds

A serial entrepreneur since I was 16, at my core, I’m a maker and a builder. I love to uncover the improvements that make the most impact and then build solutions other people can maintain. I’ve been nicknamed the “all-seeing eye” and love to dive into a focus block and produce something magical that was just what the team needed to be set up for success. I also have a personal passion for finding and empowering hidden gems – the folks who often get overlooked but are secretly wonderful team members if only someone knew how to nurture their potential.

I've been building high-growth operations teams – large and small – for over 10 years.
I began my career working with online entrepreneurs who showed me how to hit big revenue goals with small budgets. Eventually I made my way into Silicon Valley where I fell in love with building things from the ground up at mission-driven tech startups. I’m powered by an insatiable curiosity for life and a passion for helping people create magic in their operations.

Driven by insatiable curiosity and a belief in living authentically, I have a knack for building workplaces where people and businesses flourish. My diverse experience has taken me from the startup world to co-founding my own company focused on equitable and inclusive work environments. I am a Operations with a bias for action and a love for anything collaborative. I'm a guide and an empowerer who loves optimizing processes and helping people unleash their full potential.

I’ve helped grow over 40 companies in a wide variety of industries, including as an early stage investor. I founded 5 companies. I’m a philanthropist and an International Marketing Consultant with work in India, England, Estonia, South Africa, Canada, and the US.

Fun and spreadsheets are not mutually exclusive, and if you ever thought so, I am deadset on proving you wrong.

After a stint in corporate as a Chartered Accountant, I traded high heels and pencil skirts for backpacking my way through South America. Along the way, I started a consulting business and helped dozens of entrepreneurs “lift the fog” when it came to business finances.

I’m a certified Director of Operations, which means my advice is grounded in the day-to-day of running your business – not as solely an accountant behind a spreadsheet.

From working in the intelligence community to over a decade in Silicon Valley to somatic coaching to master certified BBQ judge… I’ve been told by folks they never know what I will get into next. I’m a deep generalist. I believe what matters most is kindness, playfulness, good food, nature, and movement. I’m passionate about building teams with sustainable longterm strategy so they can be great without me.

I’ve combined a decades-long (and seriously fun!) career leading finance, accounting, and operations for Fortune 500 companies, like NBC, CBS, and FOX, with a New York State CPA license and the belief that any business owner can be equipped with the tools and support necessary to take ownership of their own success journey. I've founded two companies, all while being a single mom of 4 sons (no, I'm not totally gray yet!).

With over 15 years of experience in business operations, project management, process improvement, and client success, I have a proven track record of building efficient systems and solving complex challenges across the nonprofit and startup sectors. I specialize in helping cross-functional teams align, meet goals, and scale sustainably. Driven by a passion for social impact and justice, I find deep fulfillment in creating operational structures that empower mission-driven organizations to thrive.

With over 15 years of diverse professional experience, I bring a blend of people-centered leadership, deep operational experience, and business acumen to everything I do. I’ve guided organizations through complex transitions—from startup scaling challenges to ownership changes—while building systems that empower teams and grow the bottom line.

A strategic partner for technology leaders.
I'm a deep thinker who gets excited about taking on bold challenges. A minimalist who believes less is more and that people make big efforts worthwhile.
  With a background in computer science and software engineering, I've spent the past decade building software with incredible organizations (from early-stage startups to large enterprises). Over the years, I've been fortunate to see the world through different lenses as an engineer, manager, founder, investor and advisor. My biggest takeaway is that things rarely go as planned, and that being able to adapt is the ultimate driver of success. In light of this, I have come to embrace the agile philosophy: human interactions over processes and tools, working systems over comprehensive documentation, collaboration over negotiation, and responding to change over following a plan.

I aim to bring organization, order, and optimization to our daily operations. My passion for people and processes led me to a career in operations, specifically working with small, purpose-driven businesses.

As a generalist, new challenges are my jam — I can't stay in one place for too long! My diverse experience in the real estate, hospitality, health and wellness, and customer service industries allow me to help small businesses thrive, from the inside out.

I am a dedicated Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting graduate with over 7 years of diverse working experience across various fields. My journey began as a bookkeeper, and I have since honed my skills in both academia and the accounting industry. I'm a Certified Public Accountant in the Philippines with two internationally recognized certifications, the Registered Cost Accountant and Certified Bookkeeper. In short, I love accounting.

I am a Communications, Operations & Strategist and Talent expert whose career has spanned industries and roles, from digital marketing for large corporations to managing operations of nonprofit organizations. I am passionate about leveraging cutting-edge technology, authentic communication, and team collaboration to optimize processes, manage complexity, drive efficiency, and amplify results. When I’m not using these skill to help organizations thrive and become more efficient, you can find me enjoying motherhood with my two young boys, live music with my husband, or by the water.

I am an IT wizard with a knack for turning tech challenges into triumphs. With a background as an IT Business Analyst, I've navigated the realms of both enterprise giants and nimble small businesses. Specializing in software builds, platform migrations, and data management, I'm the go-to problem solver for identifying bottlenecks in processes and workflows.

I've spent the last decade building thoughtful, people-first systems inside creative, fast-moving companies. With a background in psychology and a career in HR that has spanned agencies, retail, and hospitality, I bring a grounded, strategic lens to every phase of growth. Whether scaling a team from 5 to 50 or tightening the foundation of a brand in transition, I thrive in the in-between - where a little structure and a lot of empathy go a long way.

Hey there! I'm Mark Anthony Omagtang, and I prefer to be called by my nick name “Ton”. I’m a passionate team player with a knack for driving success. With expertise in quality analysis and team management, I bring a unique blend of skills to the table.

I am wide and varied experienced Administrative and Marketing Assistant!
I navigate the office landscape with finesse, from hospitality to finance. Need a jack of all trades? That's my specialty! I thrive on rapid learning, strategic navigation, and excel at handling tricky situations, particularly in a pinch. Meticulously detail-oriented, and radiating positive vibes, I'm enthusiastic about advancing my career and adding a touch of magic to every step of my professional journey!

Jack of all trades, master of none, though oftentimes better than a master of one. As a continuous learner who thrives in a dynamic environment, I find bliss in learning new things. From discovering new places to travel, new cuisines to eat, new games to play, to discovering new tools and technology, I always dig into whatever I can learn from those and enjoy them to the fullest. I am more of a generalist than a specialist, embracing a wide array of interests and skills that enable me to adapt and grow continuously. My journey has been marked by a diverse range of experiences that have shaped my multifaceted skill set.

A certified Project Management Professional and Operations leader with experience managing $150M+ operations, leading large-scale implementations, and delivering a wide range of projects. I specialize in building strong teams, applying Lean Six Sigma, and driving change management to achieve business objectives. With a proven record of delivering projects on time, under budget, and aligned with strategic goals, I combine cross-functional leadership, data-driven insights, and process improvement to drive growth, reduce costs, and increase profitability.

I thrive at the intersection of technology, people, and process, where complex technical goals transform into clear, human-centered operational plans. Throughout my career, I’ve balanced being a methodical planner with a creative problem-solver, equally at ease designing detailed systems or unblocking teams with inventive workflows.

I'm a Certified Human Resources Professional (CPHR) with a strong foundation in generalist work and a passion for building efficient, people-focused HR operations. I’ve supported teams across a range of industries, including hospitality, retail, biotechnology, and media, which has given me a well-rounded perspective on how to tailor HR solutions to different team dynamics and business goals.
I specialize in developing and fine-tuning HR programs that make things run more smoothly, whether that’s onboarding, performance reviews, or day-to-day policies. My focus is always on improving the employee experience while helping teams work more efficiently and effectively.

I am a scientist turned operations strategist with over a decade of experience working with early stage start ups. I am inspired by companies with groundbreaking ideas that are on a mission to positively transform the world, and thrive on bringing these visionary concepts to life. As a mom of 3 young kids, chaos, constant change, and Murphy’s Law are simply part of my everyday reality - so rest assured I am well equipped to navigate those challenges within your organization!

I’m a third-culture kid who’s been a non-conformist since I remember. This approach has led me to work with innovative companies all around the world… literally! I’m passionate about people, intercultural communication and designing unique working environments in both start-ups and corporations. My keyword is always “people-centric”. I hold a legal degree, specializing in employment law and an MBA in Intercultural Managerial Communication. I also speak 5 languages and I travel the world… extensively!

I am a strategic startup operator that rocket fuels your company. Being a 2x entrepreneur, I enjoy building creative + sustainable solutions for maximum impact. I began my career building a bootstrapped fine jewelry company from the group up. Since then I have closely partnered with mission-driven founders to help bring their vision to life. I have 10+ years of experience building successful businesses in various industries from fashion to tech.

I love figuring out how to make systems work for people, which I’ve done in some very disparate environments. This includes helping train classroom facilitators and build engaging community ESL programs, working with nonprofits, faith organizations, and immigrant communities. I also have experience in more structured settings, such as learning the intricacies of insurance as a dental admin and being a Chief of Staff for an innovative, fast-paced small startup. Being a part of small, mission-led teams is where I have built my career and what I love to do.

Hey hey! I'm Renata and I'm a generalist through and through - I can trace my generalist roots back to high school and college where I took classes in as many different disciplines as I could. After working in the corporate logistics and supply chain industry for 5 years (working 3 different jobs, of course), I pivoted to working with startups. CPG startups are my absolute favorite, especially those that go out of their way to be weird and funky. I like to joke that CPG startups are my bread and butter (sometimes literally!). As a certified Chief of Staff, I'm obsessed with learning new things and taking all kinds of tasks off of founders' plates from operations to marketing to supply chain to sales to customer service. My scrappiness knows no bounds!

Driven by curiosity and growth, I’m a collaborator, connector, and problem solver with an eye for the big picture and constant desire to better understand the “why” for everything. I consider myself a joyful generalist and take pride in my ability to learn new skills and adapt to challenging situations. My background is in cyber security R&D, where I’ve spent the last ten years working in various roles across research, engineering, and product teams, focused on finding new and creative ways to level up teams and products. I am a systems thinker and believe strongly in the importance of creating organizations and systems that respect and nurture the humans interwoven within them.
