About Stephanie

I’m at my best when things are a little messy. A growing company whose people systems have not caught up yet. A manager staring down a conversation they have been avoiding. A professional trying to figure out the smartest next move.

I’ve spent more than a decade inside HR and employee relations, not advising from the outside, but doing the work: building performance management systems, designing HR infrastructure and policies, running training and manager development, and leading investigations and sensitive employee matters when they came up.

That experience is the foundation for both sides of what I do now. As a strategic HR advisor and fractional HR leader, I work with organizations that need senior-level judgment but not necessarily a full-time HR executive. I advise founders, executives, and existing HR professionals on people strategy and complex decisions, and I can step into hands-on leadership when the work itself needs an owner. As an ICF-trained coach, I work with leaders and professionals navigating growth, workplace challenges, and career decisions, including neurodivergent professionals figuring out how to work in a way that actually works for them.
