- Obsessed with getting things done and making things better
- Energized by small wins, organized drawers, and inbox zero

- Help with bookkeeping prep and light invoicing
Culture & Accountability
- Build light systems to keep our team aligned
- Track recurring priorities and to-dos
- Plan birthdays, rituals, and micro-moments of joy
- Translate our big ideas into action
Optional (but awesome if you're into it):
