Meet the Operations Management Consultants

Behind Your Transformation

We’re an all-woman team of systems specialists who believe in building relationships, not just businesses.

I’m a proud wife and mother to our beautiful daughters, Rhaya and Gabrielle. When I’m not spending time with my family, I’m an experienced fitness instructor and fitness enthusiast.

But let me tell you how SVS came to be…

After over 10 years in corporate America – primarily in Healthcare/IT Recruiting – I discovered something about myself: I was always the “go to” person.

No matter where I worked, people came to me when things were broken. When processes didn’t make sense. When nobody could figure out how to get from A to B.

My superpower wasn’t just fixing problems. It was seeing the solution that nobody else could see.

I had a long track record of identifying what needed to happen and making it happen. I could untangle chaos and create clarity.

When I decided to start my own business as a business operations consultant, I wanted to use that strength to serve fellow business owners who were drowning in operational overwhelm.

And that’s how SVS was born.

Hey there!

We Do Things Differently Here

Most systems consultants optimize for efficiency on paper.

We optimize for humans actually using the systems.

That’s what we call “Automation with Empathy.”

What "Automation with Empathy" Means

We’ve seen it happen too many times: a small business consultant invests thousands in a “perfect system” that nobody on their team actually uses.

Why? Because most systems consultants design for how businesses should work according to textbooks – not for how real humans actually work.

We design systems differently:

  • We understand that your team has different tech comfort levels
  • We account for how information actually flows in YOUR business (not how a consultant thinks it should)
  • We build in flexibility for the messy reality of entrepreneurship
  • We provide workflow automation and business process improvement
  • We train your team with patience, not just documentation dumps
  • We stay with you as your business evolves

The result?

Systems that your team actually adopts—because they were designed with empathy for how people work, not just how software works.

How We Partner With You

We don’t believe in cookie-cutter solutions.

Every business is different, and your systems should reflect YOUR reality—not some generic template.

Our Strategy + Team Framework:

Step 1: The Fit Call

Before we talk systems, we make sure we’re the right personality match. We call it a “fit call” not a “discovery call” for a reason. 

Business is personal. We believe in building relationships, not just delivering projects.

Step 2: Systems at Scale Audit (90 Minutes)

I spend 90 minutes diving deep into your operations. What’s working? What’s not? Where are your biggest pain points?

You walk away with a strategic roadmap – whether you work with us or not.

Step 3: Custom Proposal + Implementation

Based on your audit, we create a tailored proposal. Then our team of systems specialists jumps in to design and implement everything.

And throughout the transformation? I’m here providing CEO-to-CEO emotional support—because I know how overwhelming operational change can be.

This isn't just consulting. It's partnership.

We Build Long-Term Relationships

Many of our clients have worked with us for years.

They come back again and again – not just because our work is excellent (though it is), but because we’ve built genuine relationships.

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

One of our clients has returned 6-7 times over the years. We started with HoneyBook setup, then optimized ClickUp, created custom automations, and designed capability statements for her growing business.

As her revenue doubled and tripled, her needs evolved. Now we’re migrating her to GoHighLevel because her business has grown to justify a more robust platform.

But here’s what matters most:

When she comes back, she automatically requests the same team member. Why? Because that person knows her business, understands how she thinks, and can anticipate her needs.

We have multiple clients like this. They know exactly who they want to work with because we’ve built real relationships.

That's the SVS difference.

Our Systems Specialists

I didn't build SVS alone.

I built it with a team of strategic thinkers and doers—tech consultants and operations specialists who bring deep expertise across every major platform and a genuine commitment to our clients’ success.

We’re an all-woman team, and while that’s not our primary identity, it’s something we’re proud of.

But what really matters? Each team member brings specialized skills in business automation, workflow automation, CRM setup services, and collaborative operations consulting.

When you work with SVS, you’re not just getting me. You’re getting access to a team of specialists who’ve implemented these systems hundreds of times.
