I help c-suite teams and solo founders untangle their ideas and turn them into clear, compelling strategies.
Hi, I’m Dean
You’re moving fast, but something feels out of sync. Maybe the message is muddy, the plan is stalling, or the path forward feels more complicated than it should. This is where I step in. I help you bring order to the noise so you can see the next steps clearly and move forward with confidence.
What we can work on together
When the stakes are high and the timeline is short, Dean becomes the executive seat your company needs.
A Fractional President or COO
To stabilize operations, remove friction, redesign systems, and rebuild accountability across the company.
A Culture Builder and Organizational Architect
To create a workplace where people perform at a high level and actually want to stay.
A Scaling Partner
To grow revenue while protecting the essence of the company and preventing early stage burnout or chaos.
A Board Advisor or Strategic Mentor
To support founders in making clear decisions based on lived experience from multiple industries.
A Reset to Direction and Execution
To eliminate drama, align leadership, and move the entire company forward with confidence.
Who I work with
I work with founders and leaders who move fast, think differently, and feel the weight of growing something real. Often they are scaling through complexity, navigating high-pressure moments, or leading companies that have outgrown their original systems. Many are ADHD entrepreneurs whose ideas come easily but whose businesses need clearer structure to keep pace.
Others are executives or boards facing a critical inflection point where clarity, culture, and execution need to come together quickly. What they share is a desire to build companies that perform at a high level without losing their humanity, cohesion, or soul.

What clients say about me
Jason Liu
President
Dean does not talk in theory. He steps in, takes ownership, and leads. We were stuck between vision and execution, with a team that cared deeply but lacked alignment. Dean rebuilt our operating rhythm, clarified leadership roles, and helped us move through a critical growth phase with confidence. He changed how we operate at a fundamental level.
Sarah Mitchell
Founder & CEO
Bringing Dean in was the turning point for our business. We had traction, talent, and ambition, but everything felt harder than it should. Within weeks, Dean brought clarity to our structure, reset how our leadership team worked together, and removed friction we had normalized for years. The impact was immediate and lasting. Our team is more aligned, decisions move faster, and the business finally feels like it can scale without breaking.
Amanda Reeves
COO
Working with Dean helped me become a better leader. He has an incredible ability to see what matters and ignore what does not. He brought structure without slowing us down and helped us build systems that actually support creative, fast-moving people. Our culture improved, our execution tightened, and the team felt the difference almost immediately.
