What we are
We help founders scale with the clarity and discipline of top-tier US operators.
As the strategy and finance bridge between Australia and the United States, we bring analytical precision and creative problem-solving to help companies expand, adapt, and win globally. 

The Team
We’re two friends who left Melbourne for New York a decade ago — and spent the next ten years helping build, scale, and transform technology and consumer businesses from the inside out.
We’ve seen how world-class companies operate at every stage — from early growth to IPO — and we’re passionate about bringing that same level of clarity and execution discipline to founders operating between Australia and the United States.
Jiali brings operator experience and strategic depth. With an MBA from the University of Chicago, a CFA charter, and a background in Economics, she has led corporate strategy, GTM, and investor positioning at high-growth technology companies including Yext, Rokt, and Flex.
Ashley brings financial and commercial precision. PwC-trained and with over a decade of experience leading finance teams across Adore Me, Birchbox, and Marc Jacobs, she has overseen global FP&A, strategic finance, and capital planning for consumer and e-commerce businesses navigating rapid growth, acquisitions, and cross-border expansion.
Together, we blend strategy, storytelling, and finance discipline — helping founders build strong, investor-ready businesses that compete and win on both sides of the Pacific.

Our Unique Edge

Hands on operators
We’ve led from the inside — scaling companies from Series C to pre-IPO in New York’s tech and consumer sectors, including Rokt, Flex, Birchbox, and AdoreMe. Our perspective is grounded in execution, not theory.
Business acumen
We understand the complexity of scaling across regulated markets and we bridge strategy, marketing, product, and finance — translating commercial goals into numbers.
Cross-Cultural Operators
Having built careers across Australia and the United States, we bring an instinctive understanding of both ecosystems — how business is done, capital is raised, and growth is achieved in each.
Investor And Capital Raise
We’ve helped shape and raise capital for companies valued at over $2B, crafting the financial models and strategic narratives that attract global investors.
Risk and Ops 
We’ve structured, scaled, and de-risked high-growth organizations — building compliance systems, governance models, and operating rhythms that support sustainable expansion.
Judgment and Pattern Recognition
Our breadth of experience — across industries, growth stages, and functions — gives us the ability to see patterns early, make sound calls, and guide founders through pivotal decisions with clarity and confidence.

Flagship Product

“US readiness sprint” 
Purpose: Help Australian (or APAC) tech and consumer founders prepare to scale into the US — strategically, financially, and narratively.
Why it works:
Solves a clear pain point (“we want to expand but don’t know how”)
Time-bound and easy to price (so it feels like a product, not open-ended consulting)
Deliverables:
US Readiness Memo (PDF deck or Notion doc summarizing all outputs)
Narrative Deck (Investor + GTM story)
Financial & Operating Model Review (with scenario plan)
