Hey, I’m Beckie 👋🏼 

I talk a lot about start ups & marketplaces 🚀 

I have helped multiple businesses in 12+ years, to go from an idea or MVP 💡 to launch and beyond

Startups are where I excel, and I’m the one making sure that they don’t just launch, but they absolutely thrive 🚀 

Spending over a decade in Chief Commerical roles (or similar) I turn big ideas into revenue, build teams that actually get sh*t done, and spin around 48 plates at once (with minimal casualties possible 😂)

Whether it’s a go-to market strategy, scaling sales, or just figuring out what the eff comes next - I’ve been there, done that, sent the slack message. 

If it’s chaotic, scrappy & wildly ambitious - I’m in.
