About Carla

I've been in your seat.

That's what makes me different. I've spent 15+ years inside businesses as an operator — including as COO of a marketing agency, a SaaS startup, and professional services companies. But I've also been the founder: I built and ran my own business from the ground up. I know what it feels like to be buried in the day-to-day with no way out.

That's what makes my work different. I'm not just an operator who builds systems. I'm someone who's lived your exact problem. My job is to turn overworked founders into CEOs who finally have their time back.

Testimonials

I was buried in the weeds and on the verge of burnout before I brought Carla in. Within a few months she'd taken the day-to-day off my plate. I got about 10 hours a week back and finally feel ready to scale.
