Fractional CGO for product companies

Sustainable revenue growth through earned experience and results

Roots & Fruit works with product founders and teams to fix the systems underneath the work. I help turn customer feedback into clear product decisions, align teams around shared priorities, and build operating foundations that support steady growth without constant pressure.

The work

Hands-on, collaborative, deliberate on purpose.

Three things that shape every engagement.

01 / Listen

Customer insights are your guide

Embed qualitative feedback into product and leadership decisions — without forcing bad metrics on top.

02 / Align

Shared priorities across departments

Product, CX, and marketing pulling on the same rope. Clear ownership, fewer crossed wires.

03 / Iterate

Operating foundations

Now build the system that keeps growth happening when the founder steps away from the wheel.
