For leaders whose vision is ahead of their plan

You can see it clearly. That's not the problem. Nobody else can — yet.

A vision that only exists in your head can't be funded, built, or run by anyone but you. I turn what you see into a plan real enough for other people to act on — then hand it off so you're not the only one carrying it.

I build the structure that makes the undefined real — then hand it off.

How I work

A vision stuck in one person's head can't move. I don't invent it, and I don't run it long-term — I ask what would actually have to be true, build the structure that makes it real, and hand it to the people who take it from there. You stop being the only one carrying it.

Two ways I do this

01 · Vision → Plan

Turning a Vision Into a Plan

For leaders whose idea is real, but still only exists in their own head — and it's stopping anyone else from funding, building, or believing in it.

Engagement types

Realification sprint Strategic sounding board
  • 01
    Meet the vision without flinchingTake the bold idea seriously — no pre-judging.
  • 02
    Ask what would have to be trueSurface the real assumptions, pressure-test them, find what actually matters.
  • 03
    Bring it into formA concrete, executable roadmap — priorities, sequencing, real-world constraints.
  • 04
    Hand it offTo the team or people who build it. I stay available as it evolves.
Where I've done it
  • Eight years as the strategic "glue" at a boutique strategy consulting firm — turning founders' visions into executable plans and live client engagements
  • Advisory alongside a former Intel chief strategist (Andy Grove era) on an early-stage venture — distilled hundreds of pages of strategy material into a clear, six-step executable process
  • Took a structured-finance concept from zero to a signed term sheet — built the financial model, ran the numbers, drove it through
02 · Chaos → System

Turning a Plan Into a System That Runs Without You

For leaders whose growth has outpaced what's in their own head — where the plan only works as long as they're the one holding it together.

  • 01
    Diagnose the gapFind where the strategy stops translating into what the team actually does.
  • 02
    Design the systemVision and goals cascading into a real cadence — weekly, monthly, quarterly — using proven frameworks adapted to your team.
  • 03
    Implement itThe actual tools, docs, and meeting rhythms — not just a slide.
  • 04
    Hand it offTo your team or your next operations hire, with the system already running.
Where I've done it
  • Built and ran this exact system — vision, goals, and review cadences aligned to the Scaling Up framework — as the operating rhythm for the boutique strategy firm I helped run over eight years

Whether it's a vision or an operation, the pattern's the same: you're the only one who can see the whole thing, and that's exactly why it's stuck.

One thing that sets this apart from a generic consultant or project manager: I don't force one fixed framework onto every problem. I pull from a wide range of models and approaches — and if none of them fit, I build the one that does.

About

I started as an engineer at Sony in Tokyo, then moved into sustainability consulting at Deloitte. For the past eight years I've been the strategic "glue" at a boutique strategy consulting firm — the person who takes a founder's vision and a client's chaos and turns both into something a team can actually execute.

I'm not the visionary, and I'm not the long-term operator. I'm the bridge in between — and I hand off once it's built.

Have a vision that needs a plan, or an operation that's outgrown its systems?
