Currently in San Francisco

I bring structure
to fast-moving teams.

Hi, I'm Sameeksha, a Chief of Staff with 8 years across startups, consulting, and banking. I like turning whiteboards full of post-its into systems someone can actually run. Currently doing that for an AI startup in San Francisco.

// Where I sit

Strategy is the easy part. Execution is where I live.

Most strategists stop at the deck. Most operators skip the diagnosis. I work in the middle — turning frameworks into systems that run, and keeping execution honest to the strategy underneath.

It's not enough to know what to do. The job is to make sure it actually happens.
