The person behind the work.
I started Ujima Works because I kept seeing the same pattern.
A fintech or AI startup finds traction, starts moving fast, and operations quietly become the thing holding it back.
I work as a fractional operations lead, closing that gap so founders get real leadership without being locked into a full-time hire that doesn't fit.

THE BACKGROUND
01
Eight-plus years working in operations and executive support across freelance and in-house roles, learning how companies actually run when no one is watching.
02
I managed processes for 700+ employees, including 1,500+ quarterly performance reviews, and redesigned the company's offboarding process from the ground up.
03
Supporting fintech and AI startup founders directly is where the pattern became unmistakable - and where the D-Site Framework was refined into what it is today.

HOW I WORK
I built the D-Site Framework because I kept seeing the same gap between fast growth and the operations behind it.
I treat every founder's business like it is mine. No jargon. No unnecessary complexity. Just what works.
If this sounds like the kind of partnership, let’s talk.
No pressure. No obligation. Just an honest
conversation about your business, your goals,
and whether we're the right fit to work together.
