K. Frances

With over 15 years of experience in HR, organizational development, and strategic project management, I bring both technical expertise and a people-first approach to every engagement.

I hold a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification and have led initiatives in HR compliance, organizational design, employee engagement, and project oversight across diverse industries. My mission is simple: to empower small businesses and individuals through streamlined HR practices and tailored project management solutions that create clarity, compliance, and confidence.

Outside of consulting, I’m actively involved in speaking engagements, civic leadership, and mentoring, where I share insights on retention, onboarding, and effective organizational growth. My blend of innovation, empathy, and dedication sets me apart as a trusted partner who doesn’t just deliver services, but builds lasting client relationships.
