I am honored that Digital Reference named me at the top of their list for the Best Fractional COO's in the Seattle area! While I split my time between leadership coaching and business strategy consulting at Rysing Tide, I almost always have a Fractional COO role on the go.
Digital Reference described Fractional Chief Operating Officers (COOs) as providing the experience and insight of senior operators without the long-term commitment or overhead of a full-time executive. These professionals embed with teams, stabilize systems, and help organizations move from messy middle phases into structured, scalable growth.
I have been a Fractional COO for a wide range of companies, including Realogics Sotheby's International Realty (before becoming their full-time COO for two years), Kate Quinn, and Vivid Candi. I also recently facilitated improvements to governance and operational processes at the State of Washington.
I just completed my most recent Fractional COO assignment. If you're interested in discussing how I can help uplevel your company's operations, please reach out, and let's chat.
