Change your thoughts, and you change the world.

I have built my career working with business leaders to create human resources policies and procedures that reflect each business’s corporate culture while ensuring compliance with all relevant laws. Businesses and their employees thrive when compliance is the goal of all departments!

Expertise

I have a varied professional background that I draw upon in all my work. I practiced employment law litigation (defense) where I saw firsthand the importance of creating and maintaining a compliant workplace. I taught business law and employment law as a tenured professor and learned the importance of communicating complex concepts in ways that can be easily understood. Finally, I have worked with owners and the C-suite professionals to build HR departments from the ground up and, in companies with existing departments, to strengthen existing policies.
