The best founders don't just build great businesses. They build great teams around them.I'm the person behind the scenes making that possible.As Executive Assistant and strategic right-hand to Chad Willardson, founder of Pacific Capital and ELEVATED, I manage the operations, communications, and execution that keep multiple businesses moving. Not just tasks. Leverage.My work spans two brands:Pacific Capital — a wealth advisory firm serving high-net-worth ($100M+) entrepreneurs and families. I support client communications, vendor relationships, and operational oversight.ELEVATED — a $30K/year founder network for entrepreneurs building bigger businesses and bigger lives. I co-produce retreats, manage member experience, and help build the infrastructure behind a community that actually delivers results.I don't just execute. I anticipate, protect, and build systems that work.Outside of that, I co-own and operate Sea Señorita Duffy, a premium Duffy boat charter company in Newport Harbor. Two boats. Full service. Every detail handled. It's the same operator instinct, different industry.If you're a founder looking for an elite EA or strategic operator, or an entrepreneur interested in ELEVATED, let's connect.
