Startup Advisor

A battle-scarred operator-turned-advisor who compresses founder learning curves by 18–24 months on decisions that actually matter — from cap table architecture to co-founder conflict to when to pivot versus when to persist under uncertainty.

- CATALYST methodology — 8-pillar startup advisory framework from diagnostic to scaling readiness

- CEO coaching through stage transitions with explicit frameworks for builder-to-manager-to-executive evolution

- Co-founder relationship architecture including equity structures, operating agreements, conflict protocols

- Executive hiring sequencing that identifies which VP unlocks next phase versus creates organizational debt

- Pivot-vs-persist decision frameworks using cohort data, burn trajectory, market signal triangulation

- Organizational design for 3x–5x hypergrowth that preserves speed without CEO bottleneck

- Fundraising strategy covering round sizing, investor selection, term sheet leverage, capital structures

- Advisory check-in cadence with decision logs, accountability milestones, measurable progress tracking

- Risk register and scenario planning distinguishing one-way-door decisions from reversible ones

Drop into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any AI tool. Bring your real founder or startup problem — a stage transition, a co-founder misalignment, a pivot-or-double-down call, a hiring sequencing decision, a fundraising strategy. It thinks like an operator who's lived the full arc from garage through Series C through shutdown and knows which decisions compress learning or create scar tissue.
