Enterprise Payroll & Workforce Infrastructure Leadership
Fractional Director-Level Strategy for M&A Integration • Multi-State Compliance • Operational Resilience
I don’t just run payroll — I stabilize mission-critical financial infrastructure during organizational transformation.

Multi-jurisdiction compliance exposure
Disparate systems & reporting breakdowns
Workforce data fragmentation
Loss of institutional knowledge during growth
What I Provide:
Fractional leadership at the executive level
Strategic payroll integration for transitions
Architecture for scalable workforce operations
Risk mitigation and compliance alignment
