Fractional HR - Your team is growing, your HR isn't keeping up.
Clarify people operations. Support your staff. Grow your business.
Trusted By:
Stop playing Whack-A-Mole with your HR Strategy.
Every business in growth mode reaches a point where they experience people problems.
People are your biggest asset and line item, but you're treating the systems that support them like an afterthought.
Every week that goes by without strong people systems in place can put your business and your team at risk.
You don't know where to begin. Things are calm until they aren't. You're relying a lot on AI. You don't want a generic hotline, and you want someone you can trust.
"I appreciated Maria's practical approach, responsiveness and ability to bring clarity and structure during a period of rapid development"
Maria provided HR consultation during an extremely busy startup phase for our nonprofit. She helped me identify key priorities, and worked independently to keep projects moving forward. Maria provided valuable insight into HR technology that could support our organization as we scale and grow.

Hi, I’m Maria.
I'm a Fractional HR Pro who helps empathic leaders in growing small businesses (10-40 employees) create solid HR foundations before things go wrong.
After spending almost 10 years doing HR in the vfx industry (ex Sony Imageworks, Digital Domain), I pivoted three years ago to work with small businesses.
As a serial entrepreneur, I understand the founders journey, having founded a SaaS startup of my own a decade ago.
I've also had to figure out a lot as I went, and I understand the struggle and pressure you face as a leader growing a business.
Now, I help other leaders create structure around the people side of a growing business, the part that usually gets built after something breaks; I'm the stop-gap before you're ready to hire full-time.
