About me

Jenny Down
Founder

I started SpecialOps to help founders cut through the noise and tackle their toughest operational challenges. My background spans business automation, performance marketing, and leadership, but my real strength lies in breaking problems down to first principles and addressing what’s broken. Sometimes, you have to eat glass to get things right and that’s where I thrive.

I know scaling isn’t just about growth, it’s about doing it smartly and efficiently. My focus is on eliminating the bloat so businesses can scale faster and with precision. From the ground level to long-term strategy, I understand what it takes to win.
