Hi! I'm Cordes!

From Teacher to Entrepreneur


As a lifelong educator, I designed courses on everything from AP Government to leadership skills and worked with organizations like WETA, CSPAN, and the UN. I also spent years studying productivity and motivation—first for my students, then to rebuild after burnout. But when I stepped into entrepreneurship, I had to start from scratch.

So, I did what teachers do best—I became a student. I dove into books, courses, and research, figuring out what actually works. Others started asking me for help to set up workflow systems so I started coaching and consulting with others to set up tech systems and focused processes to make running their businesses easier.

Now, I combine my love of learning, brain science and organization with everything I’ve learned about business to help business owners develop systems and routines to eliminate friction points in their businesses.
