Whether you're scaling a PE-backed platform, integrating an acquisition, modernizing your HR systems, or facing a high-volume hiring surge — I provide the infrastructure, strategy, and hands-on execution to get it done.
Over the past two decades I've built HR departments from nothing, integrated more than 30 acquisitions, deployed enterprise-level HR technology stacks, and scaled workforces from 40 to 800+ employees across 12 states — all within PE-backed, acquisition-driven platforms.
Some engagements require executive-level workforce strategy and board communication. Others require hands-on system configuration, recruiting execution, or policy drafting. I do both — and I move fluidly between them based on what the business actually needs.
Currently available for fractional, interim, and project-based engagements.
I partner with private equity-backed platforms, operating partners, and growth-stage companies that need experienced HR leadership without adding full-time overhead.
Most engagements begin at an inflection point — rapid growth, acquisition integration, leadership transition, or infrastructure strain.
I build infrastructure and execute against it. I am not a strategy-only advisor. I am not a transactional HR administrator.

Every engagement is customized to the platform's stage, infrastructure, and objectives. Services can be delivered individually, bundled within a retainer, or structured as defined project sprints.
Structured to fit your business need — whether you require embedded leadership, a defined project, or strategic counsel.
A fixed-fee, defined-scope engagement that delivers an honest, senior-level assessment of where you stand — and a prioritized roadmap for what to do about it. No retainer required. Typically completed within 3 weeks.
Talent acquisition is a core capability — not an afterthought. I've led high-volume hiring campaigns across frontline, seasonal, and hourly workforces at scale, built recruiting infrastructure from scratch, and managed ATS platforms across 70+ locations. I've also executed searches for managers, directors, and C-suite leaders across multiple industries.
Volume hiring requires a different operating model than professional search — faster pipelines, tighter process discipline, and systems that don't break under pressure. I've built and run both, and I understand when each approach is right.
The structure below reflects two distinct economic models: operational TA support (time-based, included in retainers) and search/placement (outcome-based, fee-driven). Retainer clients receive meaningfully reduced placement fees — because there's no ramp-up. I already know your business.
