Hey there! I'm Stefanie, your go-to gal for weeding out the chaos and helping your business grow!
About Me
I’m a Small Business Manager and Strategic Operations Consultant based in Santa Monica, CA. I spent 13 years immersed in all aspects of the interior design industry, from working hands-on with clients, designers, and artisans to managing the technology and operations that kept projects running smoothly. Later, I transitioned to a Product Manager role at a VR startup for four years, where I learned how to bridge creative ideas with tech solutions while keeping projects and teams on track. Between those worlds, I know exactly what it’s like to juggle a million moving parts and still keep everything running smoothly and efficiently.
What I Do
I specialize in helping small business owners breathe easier by gaining clarity and refining their operational foundation. Support is provided where you need it most by filling in gaps and optimizing the way your business runs behind the scenes. From improving current systems and managing day-to-day operations to taking care of other essential tasks, you can stay focused on what you do best.
Think of me as your right-hand partner and source of support *without the overhead costs* helping you tackle the tasks that are hard to do alone.

I have hands-on experience with platforms like Shopify, QuickBooks, Klaviyo, Zapier, Wix, Squarespace, Microsoft Office, and more. I’m confident in figuring out whatever else you’re using and can help you learn how to use it as well!

What to Expect in Our First Meeting
During this 60-minute working session, we’ll dive into your business to uncover where support is needed and clarify your next steps. We’ll talk through and review:
• Your current systems, workflows, and processes
• Where you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed

• Where I can support you and what might require outside expertise
By the end of our time together, you’ll walk away with a clear roadmap and actionable steps to confidently tackle what matters most.
From there, we'll discuss the next steps and I’ll help create an action plan so we have a clear picture of what exactly to tackle, and how to start making real progress without the stress.
This session is a paid service, either billed hourly or included as part of a retainer package, depending on what makes the most sense for your business.
