• ~ Making Things Happen (Without Breaking Them) ~
• 🥬 Leading the Big Switch – Making sure everything moves smoothly from Applied Computing Foundation to LettuceBuild without missing a beat. Think of me as the house coordinator, but for a whole company, keeping track of all the important stuff, making sure nothing gets lost in the shuffle, and helping everyone adjust to their new digital home.
• 🥬 Building a Smarter Way to Track Students – Spearheading the pilot launch for our new student progress dashboard and LMS, which is basically like giving our team superpowers to spot when students need help before they fall behind. Less guesswork, more personalized support, and (hopefully) happier, more successful learners.
• 🥬 Making Our Website & CRM Actually Work for Us – Right now, I’m knee-deep in building LettuceBuild’s website and CRM from scratch. No cookie-cutter templates here— I’m making sure it solves problems, looks good, and doesn’t make people want to throw their laptops out the window.
• 🥬 The Ultimate Goal: Working Myself Out of the Job – Here’s the fun part: I’m designing everything— processes, docs, tools, LOOMs— so that when I eventually step away later this year, the company won’t even notice I’m gone. No single-point failures, no tribal knowledge black holes— just a well-oiled machine that keeps running fast without me.
