A Successful Executive has Elan.

Focus on what matters most.

I'll handle the rest.

Elan Business Services provides fractional executive support for busy executives, founders, and business owners who need trusted help managing calendars, inboxes, meetings, travel, projects, operations and more!

The name Elan (French: élan — energy, style, enthusiasm) reflects the brand's commitment to bringing elevated, energetic professionalism to every engagement. This is not a transactional service. It is an ongoing partnership built on trust, discretion, and excellence.

Whether you are looking for fractional support, or are trying to launch a business and are unsure what kind of support you need, she can devise a curated program that best fits you and your needs. With services packages that start with as few as 10 hours of support a month, we can work together to customize what works best for you.

While services are generally provided remotely, if you are located in the Greater Phoenix area, in person support is available. If you are outside of the Greater Phoenix area, travel fees will apply.

Pricing varies depending on package and level of service needed, and starts at $650 / month.
