You've built something real, but if your team structure, hiring process, or HR systems aren't keeping up, it's only a matter of time before it costs you.

Whether you're making your first hire, dealing with a misclassified team, or running a growing business without a real HR foundation in place, this is where we start.

Here's the thing: the "doing" of HR isn't optional. The good news? You don't have to figure it out alone.

The 3-Month HR Consulting Project (Signature Offer)

→For any sized team!
→Starting at $1,750/ month

This is where the real work happens. Over three months, we build the HR foundation your business needs to hire confidently, stay compliant, and stop putting out people-related fires.

Every project starts with an HR Audit so we know exactly where the gaps are — then we get to work building the systems, policies, and structure that actually hold up as you grow.

What's included:

  • HR Audit + gap analysis

  • Job description creation and classification review

  • Employee Handbook creation

  • Hiring and onboarding systems

  • Ongoing HR support throughout the project

This is the right fit if:

  • Your team members may be misclassified as contractors when they should be employees

  • You're hiring W2 employees for the first time

  • You have a team but no real HR systems — no handbook, no onboarding process, no structure

  • You've been nervous about an audit and you know it's only a matter of time

Finding the right HR support for you

Finding the right HR support is a lot like finding the right therapist for you: you’ve got to vibe them out, and then it can still take some trial and error. Learn more about me.

Your Questions, Answered

  • Primarily small to mid-sized businesses — teams of roughly 5 to 100 employees. The right fit is less about headcount and more about where you are in your HR journey.

  • For most businesses looking to build or restructure, yes — and honestly, it's because it works. Everything is connected: your classification, your handbook, your hiring process. One-offs can help, but they rarely fix the root problem. The 3-month project is designed to actually solve it.

  • That's what the free 30-minute HR Audit call is for. We'll look at where you are, identify the gaps, and figure out the best path forward — together.

  • Both. I'm based in NJ/NY and available virtually nationwide.

  • C-suite and executive teams, solo business owners working only with contractors (with no plans to hire), and businesses looking for a quick compliance checkbox rather than real systems. If that's you, no hard feelings — but I want to be upfront about where I'll have the most impact.

HR Isn't Optional: What It Actually Looks Like When I Work With Your Business

Let me be direct with you: the moment you hire someone, full-time, part-time, sometimes even contract, HR stops being something you'll "get to eventually."

Your Culture Isn't Broken. But You Might Be Building It By Accident.

Here's the hard truth: most small business owners have a workplace culture. They just didn't intentionally build it.
