HR Consulting · Canada & U.S.
Chartered Professional in Human Resources
9+ years partnering with startups, growing businesses, and established organizations to build HR systems, structure, and culture that help great people stay and thrive.
About Me
I'm a Chartered Professional in Human Resources (CPHR) with over 9 years of experience building HR systems, programs, and culture across a wide range of organizations — from early-stage startups finding their footing to large, established operations managing complex workforce challenges.
My career spans hospitality, construction, and retail — from supporting 6,000+ employees at a national restaurant group across Canada and the U.S., to building the first HR function at a hospitality organization in Vancouver from the ground up, to providing fractional HR support to a construction company in California.
What I enjoy most is working where HR is still being shaped. Whether that means creating structure where there is none, improving systems that aren't quite working, or supporting leaders through difficult people challenges — I'm energized by work that makes a real and lasting difference for both the business and its people.
I provide a neutral and trusted partnership. I listen before I recommend, I involve the people who will use the systems I build, and I stay involved through implementation to ensure the process is working and delivering real results. Everything I build is designed to work within your specific organization.
Areas of Practice
Finding the right people and creating a hiring process that is consistent, on-brand, and reflects the organization.
Setting employees up for success from day one with structured onboarding, clear expectations, and ongoing support.
Building performance review systems that are clear, fair, and actually used — with the manager training to back them up.
Understanding what's really going on through surveys and conversations, and turning that into meaningful action plans.
Creating policies and handbooks that align with legislation and are easy for managers to understand and follow.
Identifying future leaders, building internal pipelines, and supporting long-term development so great people stay and grow.

Products
After years in HR, I kept running into the same problem — tracking employment law changes was manual, time-consuming, and error-prone. So I built ComplianceHQ: a platform that monitors employment law automatically, generates policies directly from current law, tracks deadlines, and keeps everything in one place.
Built for the complexity of Canadian employment law across all 13 provinces and territories. Automatically monitors legislative changes, generates legally cited policies, and keeps your compliance calendar up to date — filtered to your jurisdiction, industry, and company size.
Explore →Built for the complexity of U.S. employment law across all 50 states and federal requirements. Monitors multi-state legislative changes, generates legally cited policies, and flags risk before it becomes a liability — filtered to your state, industry, and company size.
