Hi! I'm Amanda Schwartz Ramirez, a strategy and operations executive, advisor and board member. Over the last 15 years, I've built and scaled high-performing organizations at their earliest stages, during hyper-growth, and at Fortune 500 scale.

Currently, as an advisor and founder of Garden Labs, I help venture-backed CEOs and COOs hone a more focused strategy and scale more intentionally. I also work closely with publicly-traded companies to advise on emerging tech.

I built a comprehensive course that details how other execs can on-ramp into consulting full-time, reducing the risk of costly mistakes and missed opportunities. This course matters to me because it took time and cycles to take this path myself -- and I want other seasoned execs to know what is available to them.
