About
I’ve handled purchasing for shared workspaces and startups, stretching budgets without creating headaches. My lens is price-to-reliability over brand gloss. I like gear that quietly pays for itself.
Core Beliefs
Value is reliability you’ll actually use, not features you’ll rarely touch.
Background
At a growing co-work, leadership bought micro-cut floor units for every nook. Gorgeous, overpriced, and half-idle. We mapped what actually got shredded, consolidated to two reliable cross-cuts plus locked consoles, and cut spend by thousands. Nobody noticed the difference, except finance and the folks no longer wrestling jammed boutique machines.
