Ramos Advisory is the direct consulting practice of Cintya Ramos: nearly twenty years of municipal executive leadership, available for interim, fractional, and project engagements.
I have spent nearly twenty years leading at the senior level in municipal government, across Chief of Staff, finance director, and budget director roles in four cities. The work is the decision log, the pre-brief, the agenda, and the action tracker: the scaffolding that turns strategy into something that happens.
Along the way I have managed operating budgets up to $605M, governed a $1.7B capital program, stood up federal grant governance that reported zero findings, led audit responses, and sat on the team that stabilized a major ERP. The forms change. The constant is the same: the executive office needs something to land cleanly, and I am the person who makes sure it does.
My academic foundation is Wharton, a Villanova MBA, and the Bloomberg Harvard City Leadership Initiative. The credentials matter, but they are not what makes people trust me. What does is how I show up: steady, accountable, and reliable on the work that has to get done.
Ramos Advisory, LLC is a Florida firm, and engagements are principal-led. When you hire the firm, you work with me directly. There is no junior team to hand your work to.
Cadence, governance, decision paths, accountability, and follow-through. Strong institutions do not run on intention alone. They run on operating discipline.
Finance, operations, policy, and risk often break down at the executive level because they are not framed clearly enough. My role is to turn complexity into usable judgment.
The goal is not a temporary fix. It is stronger systems, cleaner governance, better management habits, and more reliable execution after the immediate issue has passed.
Audits that close cleanly. Budget books that win GFOA awards. Federal grant programs reporting zero findings. Executive offices that decide on time.
Whether it is an interim seat to fill, a budget to steady, a federal grant to close out, or a project that has fallen between portfolios, the fastest way to start is an email.
Ramos Advisory works with municipal, public-authority, higher-ed, healthcare, and large-nonprofit clients on interim, fractional, and project engagements. Gainesville, FL or remote.
