James Abraham

Turn high-priority problems into shipped outcomes.

Ex-VC startup specialist providing extra brain for strategy, operations, and moving from chaos to clarity.

WHAT I OFFER

​Project-based sprints (4-6 weeks), fractional leadership (1–3 days per week), or advisory retainers available.
 

  • Fix Ops Before They Break Your Team. 
    Redesign bottlenecked or manual processes into scalable, low-touch systems. 

  • Ship An MVP That Works. 
    From idea to working-MVP in weeks. I lead product sprints end-to-end: define the value prop, scope features, and build with engineers/designers.

  • Build a Model You Can Bet On.
    Design and build a financial model that’s clear, dynamic, and decision-grade. Designed for founders, boards, and investors.

  • Be Your Second Brain.
    Need founder-level thinking without the full-time hire? Drop me into an ambiguous, high-priority project and I’ll bring clarity, structure, and momentum.
