The Jump Off

HRnB is a boutique consultancy and my approach is not a one-size-fits-all. Each client engagement is customized based on individual needs. It all starts with a conversation.

Intro phone call

To begin, we’ll spend approximately 60 minutes learning about each other in a one-to-one conversation or with as many participants as needed, on-site or virtually. 

  • The focus of this meeting is to align on how we could work together and see if the vibe is right. Essentially, we’re interviewing each other. 


  • I’ll take copious notes and ask a lot of questions and I anticipate you’ll do the same.

Strategy 
& proposal

By the meeting’s end, and if we decide to move forward, we will have reached a level of understanding that allows me to send a sample statement of work and recommendation on an engagement. 

Plan forward

Then, we’ll schedule follow-up conversations with key individuals in the business; they can range from Co-founders to leadership team members to investment partners and anyone in between. 

Ultimately, we will land on an engagement that accelerates the business.

I support  founders & leadership teams in the creation of a meaningful, scalable employee experience so they can focus on evolving business needs, without having to deal with large-scale, impersonal HR firms.

What I do

  • I provide a scalable, HR foundation for startups, support small to mid-size companies through various, business inflection points, and provide specialized executive support to larger businesses in need of specialized, HR expertise.

  • I communicate clearly, concisely, and in person (thank you internet!), whenever possible. Employment law loves acronyms. I definitely do not.

  • I’ll help you meet employees where they need to be met while mindfully cautioning scalability throughout the decision-making process. *Ask me why a lobster is not a dog.

What I don’t do

  • Use HR jargon and business buzzwords. We won’t unpack, force multiply, circle back, or talk about the height of hanging fruits.

  • Businesses of all sizes don’t need hard and fast rules for everything; there’s a gray area that needs to be acknowledged. I don’t always go “by the book” and take a black-and-white approach.

  • Commit to work that isn’t part of my toolkit. People elements like payroll tax law and anti-harassment training are not my jam but my fabulous Rolodex of colleagues might be and I would be thrilled to make an introduction.
