I'm an HR professional with experience across every level of HR operations - from individual employee issues to organizational strategy, from compliance audits to leadership development.

My Background: I've worked across nonprofits, federal contractors, staffing agencies, and workforce development programs. This unique career trajectory has given me deep exposure to complex HR challenges - from navigating federal compliance requirements to managing employee relations across diverse organizational cultures. I'm passionate about people operations and spend time researching emerging HR trends, regulatory changes, and innovative approaches to workplace challenges. I bring fresh perspectives to traditional HR problems while understanding the fundamentals that keep organizations compliant and employees protected. My varied experience means I understand how HR functions differently depending on your industry, size, and constraints. I work at the strategic and project level, whether you need someone to develop comprehensive HR systems or tackle specific challenges like investigations, compliance reviews, or policy development.

I've handled workplace investigations that required delicate navigation of legal requirements and human emotions. In my work as a fractional manager, I've built HR departments from scratch where there were no systems, no policies, and no processes. I've managed compliance for organizations where staying current with regulations protects both employees and the business.

What I Can Do for You: I handle the full spectrum of people challenges. Need a workplace investigation conducted properly? I'll manage it from initial complaint through documentation and resolution. Compliance audit keeping you up at night? I'll review your I-9s, FMLA documentation, and employment practices to identify gaps before regulators do.

Building HR infrastructure from scratch? I'll create employee handbooks, develop performance management systems, establish onboarding processes, and design training programs that people will engage with. Managing employee relations issues that are disrupting your workplace? I know how to navigate difficult conversations while protecting your organization legally.

Whether it's designing recruiting strategies, conducting management training, handling benefits administration, or creating policies that make sense for your culture - I can design and implement solutions that fit your specific needs and budget constraints.

From strategic HR initiatives to workforce planning, I provide the guidance you need without the overhead of a full-time hire.
