CREATIVE PROJECT MANAGEMENT CONSULTANT
Coverage that doesn’t just fill the gap. It closes it.
10 yeaRS ~ DOZENS OF TEAMS ~
EVERY MAJOR PM TOOL
When a creative project manager goes on leave, takes a new role, or disappears overnight, most teams do the same thing: ask someone to cover it on top of their actual job.
That’s not a plan, that’s survival mode.
I step in during planned and unexpected PM absences to keep creative work moving, stakeholders informed, and teams supported. No disruption. No scramble.
And because I’m embedded in the day-to-day, I notice things. I capture what’s working, what’s not, and what the team could improve on once the dust settles.
Most consultants bring a framework. I bring field data.
– How I help –
Your PM is out. I’m here for you! Projects stay on track, deadlines hold, and your team keeps moving without missing a beat. Every engagement ends with a ‘While You Were Out Report’: a clear summary of what I observed and practical recommendations for when your PM returns, so they come back to clarity, not chaos.
Your team is putting in the work, but something’s off. I assess creative workflows across your team and deliver a diagnostic with prioritized recommendations and a 30/60/90-day roadmap.
You have the roadmap, but your team is already slammed. I turn recommendations into real improvements. Cleaner intake, better reporting, and workflows that actually fit how your team works, without adding to anyone’s plate.
