HR Manager @ Payroll Partners - Host of SpeakEasy HR | Small Business Owner | Brand Advocate | Content Creator

I’m a people-first HR professional with 18+ years of experience helping businesses grow through better people practices. From startups to established organizations, I’ve worked across industries to improve the employee experience, navigate change, and build high-performing teams.

I got my start in benefits consulting, but it wasn’t long before I realized HR was where I belonged. What drew me in then still drives me now: the chance to help leaders and employees thrive, because when you take care of your people, business gets better. Originally from Michigan, I earned a golf scholarship to Xavier University, where I studied Sport Management and learned the power of discipline, adaptability, and teamwork—skills I’ve carried into every chapter of my career.

Today, I wear a few meaningful hats. I serve as the HR Manager and Chamber Program Manager at Payroll Partners, supporting over 60 chambers of commerce across Ohio and Northern Kentucky. I’m also a small business owner, running The Christian Store with my wife—a local shop grounded in faith and community.
