Why choose LJBOps?

Turn vision into action

As a Fractional COO for small business, I manage budgeting, hiring, onboarding, workflows, and strategy implementation—all on a part-time basis so you can grow sustainably.

Part of the team

More than just a consultant or coach, I roll up my sleeves and work as a part of your team to implement operations plans, while still advising on business goals and growth strategy.

Small business-minded

I can help with everything from starting up to expanding to a new location, improving profitability, finding work-life balance, or getting help in areas outside your expertise.

My Approach

With a knack for both big-picture strategy and detail-oriented systems, I approach every business with a balanced, stakeholder-minded perspective.

15+ years in operations

I’m not afraid to ask hard questions or push back when needed because strong leadership requires honest collaboration.

Leading with trust

I work efficiently, value work-life balance (for both of us), and care deeply about helping small businesses grow sustainably.
