My Background

Christy Schrader

I’ve built my career across finance, marketing operations, and organizational operations in growing, fast-paced environments, often working at the intersection of strategy and execution. I’ve supported leaders and teams through strategic planning, operational build-out, communications, and cross-functional execution, bringing structure to ambiguity and helping people focus on what actually moves things forward. Across roles, my strength has been translating complex situations into clear priorities and practical next steps.

​

I started this practice because I saw how often people get stuck not from lack of ability, but from lack of clarity. Whether someone is navigating the college process, figuring out their early career direction, or stepping into an operations role without a roadmap, my role is to provide grounded guidance, thoughtful feedback, and practical next steps. I don’t offer guarantees or shortcuts. I offer perspective, structure, and honest support so clients can make decisions they understand and stand behind.
