Bring Me Your Problem

Big Problems. Messy Middles. Let's Get to Work.

Businesses rarely need another person pointing out what's wrong. They need someone willing to roll up their sleeves, ask the uncomfortable questions, and help turn good intentions into meaningful progress.


Maybe you know what's getting in the way, but nothing seems to change. Maybe you're too close to the problem to see it clearly. Or maybe there's a conversation everyone knows needs to happen, and nobody wants to have it.


That's where I come in.


I work alongside leaders to untangle operational challenges, get stalled initiatives moving, and address the things that are easier to avoid. Whether it's a specific project or ongoing fractional COO support, we'll figure out what needs to happen and get to work, with accountability for the results and consideration for the people affected.

Experience Earned in the Thick of It

For over 15 years, I've worked inside growing and complex organizations, holding senior operational and executive leadership roles where decisions had real consequences for people, performance, and the bottom line.


I've led teams, managed competing priorities, navigated difficult change, and been accountable for the results. I know what it feels like when the answers aren't obvious, the stakes are high, and everyone is looking to you to figure out what happens next.


Larch Legacy exists because I've lived the pressure of leadership from the inside. I bring that experience to the table, along with the perspective, practical judgment, and trusted relationships I've built along the way.

How I Can Help

Untangle What's Stuck

The same problems keep resurfacing. Decisions get delayed. Accountability gets muddy. Everyone's busy, but the things that matter aren't moving.

I'll help you get underneath what's happening, ask the questions that need asking, and work through the decisions and changes required to move forward. That includes the uncomfortable conversations.

Get Things Moving

You've got an important project, an operational challenge, or a growing list of priorities that nobody has the capacity to own.

I can step in to lead an initiative, improve how things run, manage change, or provide ongoing fractional COO support. Whatever the engagement, the goal is to turn decisions into action and make progress that lasts.

Bring the Right People Together

Some problems call for expertise beyond one person's experience.

Over the years, I've built relationships with talented operators, technical specialists, and industry professionals who know their shit. When the work calls for it, Larch can bring that expertise together and coordinate the people and moving parts needed to deliver.

I've seen what happens when businesses overlook the people affected by their decisions. The cost shows up in lost trust, good people leaving, and teams giving up. Hard decisions matter. Accountability matters. So does giving a shit about the humans involved.

The Human Side of the Work

 Some challenges go deeper than operations. They involve how people think, decide, and follow through.


I co-founded Human Intelligence Industry (Hii) with Jill Merlo to address the human gaps affecting leadership and performance.
