I help small businesses and startups run cleaner, move faster, and deliver better — through systems thinking, structured project execution, and hands-on ops support.
Structured execution for complex initiatives. I build the plan, manage the dependencies, lead the team, and deliver on time. From migrations to new service launches — I've done it across tech, healthcare, and legal.
Systems and structure for businesses that are scaling but still figuring out how to run. I audit the gaps, build the SOPs, optimize the processes, and make sure the backend actually supports the vision.
I lead teams without direct authority — managing competing priorities, driving alignment across time zones, and keeping every stakeholder informed and on track. Teams of 3 to 10+.
Executive status reports, escalation management, cross-team alignment. I translate complex project data into clear communications that C-suite leaders can act on.

Shamaaka was building out her consulting brand, Stick With a Purpose, and described it perfectly: she had the house and the foundation, but nothing in it. She had the vision and the drive but needed someone to help her build the structure, hold her accountable, and bring clarity to what needed to happen and in what order.
"Whitney helped me define my next three steps, created a timeline that worked around my schedule, and motivated me to the point that each task was clear and I was no longer frustrated."
