Gentle accountability that keeps everything moving forward.
Calm, Professional Communication
Structured updates that keep your team informed and supported.
What I Offer
C.Mechelle Consulting provides project delivery support for small teams, creatives, and service providers.
I don’t rebuild your systems or force new tools on you. Instead, I help you turn ideas and commitments into clear plans, realistic timelines, and consistent follow-through, using the tools you already have (or simple documents if you’re starting from scratch).
Plan and structure projects from idea to delivery
Every project begins with clear definition and direction. I turn ideas into structured plans with milestones, owners, and timelines so your team always knows what comes next.
Keep tasks, deadlines, and responsibilities clear
Clarity eliminates confusion. I make sure every task has a clear owner, realistic due dates, and an organized place to live; creating a smoother, more predictable project flow.
Coordinate communication and follow-up
Your team shouldn’t have to chase updates or wonder who owes what. I manage communication, check-ins, and follow-through so information moves efficiently and everyone stays aligned.
Flag risks early so nothing quietly falls apart
Projects rarely fail loudly, they fail quietly. I identify issues early, communicate them clearly, and guide your team through decisions that keep delivery on track.

How working together works
Consultation Call
We start with a conversation to understand your projects, priorities, and current challenges. This time is used to clarify what support would be most helpful and determine whether working together is a good fit — no pressure, no commitment.
Project Delivery Plan
If there’s alignment, I outline a clear approach for supporting your project delivery. This includes defining scope, timelines, and the level of involvement needed so expectations are clear before any work begins.
Kickoff & Momentum
Once we move forward, we establish priorities, communication rhythms, and next steps. From there, I focus on maintaining momentum through consistent coordination, follow-through, and clear updates as the work progresses.
C.Mechelle Consulting is a good fit if…
If you’re not sure whether your situation fits, we can figure that out together during a quick intro call.
About C.Mechelle Consulting
C.Mechelle Consulting provides project management services focused on clear, calm project delivery for small teams.
I specialize in helping busy founders and teams move from “we really need to get this done” to “we know exactly what’s happening next and who owns it.”
- Delivery first. Tools support the work — they don’t define it.
- Calm communication. Clear, respectful, and consistent.
- Realistic planning. I’d rather plan honestly than promise impossible timelines.
