About Amy

I’ve built my HR career inside large organizations like Ropes & Gray, Rapid7, and Forrester—where I learned what strong, scalable people practices really look like. Over the past several years, I’ve brought that foundation into smaller, fast-moving teams, helping businesses implement only what’s essential: practical systems that support people, reduce friction, and make work better.I’m not here to drop in a one-size-fits-all playbook. I meet you where you are and help you build what works for your team.

Rooted in Vermont: I understand the value of relationships, trust, and showing up for your people—because I live and work in the communities you serve.
