In 2014, I graduated with honors, earning a bachelor’s degree in Social Work and Psychology, and was preparing to take on a prestigious role as a policy analyst for the Montana State Legislature. At the same time, I applied for a temporary, 30-day summer position as an Operations Assistant at a local vacation rental company.
To be honest, I wasn’t even sure what vacation rentals entailed, let alone what an Operations Assistant actually did. However, as I read the job description, it felt as if it had been crafted specifically for me. Despite my uncertainty about the specifics of the role, I had never felt more confident that I was exactly the candidate they were looking for.
The job description outlined someone who:
After successfully completing the first interview, I met the company owner for my final interview. Upon hearing about my scheduling preferences, she initially recommended a full-time receptionist position, believing it offered greater stability. Without hesitation, I declined and confidently stated, “You won’t let me go after 30 days—I was made for this position.”
And that’s exactly what happened. In those first 30 days, I immersed myself in every aspect of the business, embracing new challenges with enthusiasm. As promised, at the end of the initial period, I was offered a permanent role.
The business model, though simple at first glance, proved fascinating in its complexity—from inventory growth and supply purchasing to staff management, escalation handling, and nurturing relationships with property owners and vendors. Over the next five years, I eagerly embraced every opportunity, becoming the subject matter expert in numerous areas. With strong support from company leadership and colleagues, I refined and improved countless processes, discovering my passion and honing my unique skill set.
Encouraged by the owners, in 2019, I launched my own consulting firm, offering services from Operational consulting to serving as a fractional COO for multiple organizations until 2022. My role involved optimizing operations, creating sustainable solutions, building and managing teams and identifying and eliminating single points of failure. Yet, consistently, the financial side of these businesses was a critical gap that few were willing or able to address comprehensively.
Recognizing a greater challenge beyond operations, I founded Trust Synthesis. Each company’s operational needs are distinct, and what truly motivates us is crafting tailored financial strategies, processes, and solutions to help businesses thrive.
Thank you for letting us be a part of your story.
