This has been a fun, informative project with my good friend Izatt Folkman. In the middle of our summer semester last year, we encountered an opportunity to create a business and do some client work. For nearly 8 months, we worked on some awesome projects with our clients, learning so much along the way. We also learned valuable lessons on business ownership and administration. Upon finishing our main projects, we made the decision to close this chapter and focus on other ventures and our MBA's.During our time we helped small businesses with operations, systems, CRM, and general business consulting. Our projects included marketing campaigns, CRM implementation, and project management training.

HR Mavericks is a movement centered on democratizing HR resources for everyone, especially those small businesses just getting their HR department set up. As someone working in a small business doing this exact thing, HR Mavericks has been super beneficial for me. Plus, I get to contribute and learn along the way. I've written several articles, participated in some panel discussions, and have been a guest on the HR Mavericks Podcast.
