  5. 05CEO

I’m Adriana. I have pitched stories as a publicist, written them as a New York Times columnist, closed multi-million dollar deals as a fractional COO, shipped product as a Rails and JavaScript founder, and answered for the P&L as a CEO who raised priced rounds, notes, and SAFEs.

Specialists in silos miss the levers between silos. The work I do lives in those gaps: the authority asset that doubles as an AI citation source, the press system that feeds the sales pipeline, the product fix that unlocks the channel.

Everything feels urgent. Only a few things create growth.
