People First.
Results Driven.

With 25+ years in HR executive leadership, I specialize in building people-first cultures where employees have a real voice — and leadership actually listens.

Employer-Side: I partner with mission-driven organizations to solve complex HR challenges without the full-time price tag. My approach is simple: use AI and automate the transactional busy work, reducing unnecessary HR transactional costs, and free up your remaining HR experts for human validation and critical thinking.

Employee-Side: I provide private consultation on matters such as HR mentorship for newly promoted HR leaders stepping into their first leadership role, and navigating workplace conflict.

Based in Norfolk, VA. Available remote nationwide, for travel assignments, and hybrid in the Hampton Roads, VA region.
