If your company has outgrown ad-hoc HR but isn't ready for a full-time HR Director, I can help. I partner with founders and leadership teams as a Fractional HR Leader, bringing senior-level HR strategy and hands-on execution without the overhead of a full-time hire. I frequently work with organizations that are developing, scaling, restructuring, or formalizing HR practices, helping them move from ad-hoc HR management to structured, compliant people operations. Clients engage me to: • Serve as a trusted HR advisor to founders and executive teams • Align HR policies and practices with business strategy • Develop or review employee handbooks and HR policies • Conduct HR compliance assessments across federal and multi-state employment laws • Provide guidance on employee relations, investigations, and performance management issues • Build scalable HR processes and documentation for growing organizations • Develop and implement competitive compensation and total rewards programs • Lead HRIS selection, implementation, and process optimization • Improve talent acquisition, retention, and workforce planning My background spans a wide range of industries including oil & gas, medical device manufacturing, healthcare, digital marketing, construction, food & beverage manufacturing, retail, telecommunications, broadcasting, interior design, and nonprofit organizations. This breadth allows me to quickly understand business operations and provide HR solutions that are both compliant and practical. By combining strategic insight with practical execution, I deliver HR solutions that are immediately practical and built to scale. Areas of Expertise • Fractional HR Leadership • HR Compliance & Multi-State Employment Law • Employee Handbooks & HR Policy Development • Employee Relations & Workplace Investigations • Compensation & Total Rewards • HRIS Implementation & Optimization • Organizational Development • Talent Acquisition & Workforce Planning • Performance Management • Culture & Employee Engagement • Training & Leadership Development • Change Management • HR Infrastructure Typical engagements range from targeted HR compliance reviews to ongoing fractional HR leadership supporting executive teams. One client has engaged me continuously for over three years as their Fractional HR Leader. If this sounds like what your organization needs, I'd love to connect, most engagements start with a simple conversation.
