What I Do
but the path to execute isn't:
- Strategic initiatives aren’t gaining traction
- Product launches are delayed or quality is suffering
- Department performance has eroded, yet the data doesn’t match what people are experiencing
In these situations, the problem itself isn't clear. And without a clear problem, there's no clear solution. This is where I come in.
I bridge the gap between people and performance.
I partner with leaders and teams to uncover the root issues blocking progress, sharpen the strategic plan, and put reporting in place so results are visible and sustainable.
Both as a consultant and operator, I have been a change agent my entire career - working with teams to:
- Build trust and work towards a common goal
- Build new functions in support of new products
- Develop new or enhanced business performance reporting
- Uncover the real issues buried in poor data
- Coach up or formally train managers
- Design scalable operating models
Who I Work With
Executives and Founders facing pressure to grow, improve costs, or turnaround operations.
Product and Operations leaders determined to break through roadblocks and scale with confidence.

The Difference with Me
Unlike big consulting firms that deliver decks, or internal teams too close to the problem, I bring:
- People-first leadership — I connect the dots between people and pain points, building trust and momentum
- Engineering mindset — a structured, outcome-driven approach to untangle complexity
- Big-Picture Perspective — seeing across functions to align strategy with execution.
I usually step in as an interim or fractional operator (think Chief of Staff), embedding with your team quickly - without the overhead of a full-time hire or detachment of a traditional consultant.

Excellence | Integrity | Collaboration
Jennifer started in the fintech industry through a backdoor - working at a hardware company that had just designed a mobile payment “sled” for the Apple iPod. To bring it to market, she partnered with the Apple MFi team to certify the hardware — making sure it integrated seamlessly with iOS devices and upheld Apple’s brand reputation. Learning the Apple method taught her that product launches aren’t just deadlines, they’re reputations on the line. She’s carried this discipline into every role every since, where execution needs to match the ambition of the strategy.
"Execution needs to match the ambition of the strategy"
Today, she partners with payment leaders to bring clarity and execution to their most strategic initiatives. Her career spans startups and new ventures to Fortune 200 companies, with a focus on navigating complex and ambiguous environments to drive scalable growth.
A seasoned operator, she previously held leadership roles at Worldpay, from FIS and Infinite Peripherals. She has scaled mission-critical functions, resolved multimillion-dollar cost impacts, and is known for bringing alignment, clarity, and execution during periods of change.
A speaker on data-driven decision-making, Jennifer has also provided expert testimony to the California Senate on credit card data protection technology. She has been featured in RSPA, The Point-of-Sale News, and Apparel Magazine.
