[ 01 / Who ]

The operator mentality.

Operators are defined by a single mindset: getting things done. They turn chaos into structure and make sure a company can scale without the fundament collapsing.

I'm Yan, a combo-operator for Marketing, Operations & Finance with 14y of experience. I helped build companies from 0 → 100 and (co-)exited 4 times. I have a Blockchain, AI & Deeptech background. I can fit as a CMO / COO / Operator for tech scaleups and SMEs.

[ 02 / Core qualities ]

01

Results-driven

Vague goals become concrete action plans — with owners, deadlines, and numbers attached.

02

Process builder

Systems designed, workflows automated, efficiency found where it was hiding in plain sight.

03

Problem solver

Comfortable in chaos. I find the real bottleneck and remove it, not the symptom around it.

04

Data-driven

Every decision anchored in a number. No opinions dressed up as strategy.

[ 04 / Short bio ]

Fourteen years building, scaling, and exiting companies across tech, deeptech and services. I've sat in the founder seat, the COO seat, and the CMO seat, sometimes in the same quarter.

Today I operate as a fractional executive for a small number of ambitious teams. I take a mandate, embed, and leave the company stronger than I found it.
