Owning high‑quality strategy deck creation for executive and investor audiences
Producing clear frameworks, validation roadmaps, and metrics to prove or disprove hypotheses
Arming founders with “what to do,” “what not to do,” and “what must be done first” recommendations
Pressure‑testing founder assumptions and guiding teams toward disciplined, evidence‑based decisions
Presenting recommendations to founders and investors with confidence and precision
Identifying replicable analytical tasks for automation, guiding AI tool development, and testing early versions for alignment with GTM best practices
