GroundWork is a digital sanctuary for creative minds craving more clarity, calm, and control in how their business runs.

I design and build systems that help creative businesses streamline their operations, projects, and client experience, so they can grow without burning out.

I work with tools like Notion, ClickUp, Airtable, and Dubsado to create custom setups for:

– Client onboarding and offboarding
– Project and task management
– Sales pipelines
– Automation and admin clean-up

If you're just starting out or scaling up, I help you build infrastructure that supports your vision.

Sick of systems that don’t stick?
Let’s build one that does.

Over my 8+ years working with creative teams, social enterprises, tech startups, and government projects, I saw the same pattern everywhere: incredibly talented people pouring their hearts into meaningful work, but drowning in the digital chaos. Their projects were suffocating under clunky workflows and overwhelming admin.

The turning point came when I realised that creative minds don't need more structure, they need better structure. Structure that bends with their process, not against it. Systems that feel like a supportive friend, not a rigid taskmaster.

With my background blending digital strategy, UX, project management, and purpose-led communications, I learned to translate creative chaos into systems that actually work and feel good to use. I discovered that the best operations are invisible, they support your creativity instead of constraining it.

That's why I launched GroundWork. To offer something different. Grounded, human-first operations support that brings ease, clarity, and flow to growing businesses.

I believe your business should feel as good behind the scenes as it looks from the outside. Thoughtful, intentional, and deeply supportive of the way you work.

Today, I work with creatives, consultants, and entrepreneurs to design backend systems that scale sustainably, from onboarding to delivery to day-to-day ops. Because when your systems work with you instead of against you, you can focus on what you do best: creating meaningful impact.
