Hi, I'm Latha.

Fractional COO.

Strategy Whisperer.

Numbers Nerd.
(In cute but comfy shoes.)

With two decades of experience behind the scenes of healthcare practices, nonprofits, and growing service businesses, I’ve seen it all—from burnout and bottlenecks to replay reports no one follows up on.

I founded Clear to Scale Advising because too many brilliant founders are stuck in systems that don’t

serve them. I help you clean up the chaos,

streamline what’s working, and bring strategy back into the driver’s seat—so you can lead with clarity

and actually enjoy your business again.
