say hey to your new work bestie

Hi, I'm steffani

17-year HR leader bringing together AI and modern HR to help people and businesses work smarter.

I believe there are few things more crucial to surviving your career than a ride-or-die Work Bestie you can laugh with, cry to, and confide in (another being coffee in close proximity). I spent nearly two decades in HR, navigating everything from mergers and pay equity to developing leaders and the tricky conversations nobody wants to have. Being immersed in a company building workplace technology also allowed me to directly influence how products were shaped, grounded in how people actually work and what they need to succeed.

Then I got curious about AI, and I got good at it. Today, I bring that same people-first perspective to companies I advise, like Google, helping shape AI tools around how real people and small businesses actually work. Now I do what I’ve always done: make complicated things easier to understand and actually useful at work. HR is my foundation. AI is the newest tool. People are still at the center.

so, we've all been here, huh?

AI is moving faster than you are

Nobody’s sure what’s “allowed”

Leaders winging it

Tough talks you keep rehearsing

Work has always felt like a roller coaster. Whether you’re building a business, leading a team, or figuring out your next move, one minute you’re ascending, the next you’re holding on for dear life. AI just added a loop.

Together, we’ll cut through the noise, keep the human part human, and build a plan (and a bestie) you can actually use tomorrow.

Stuck, undervalued, or between jobs

“I knew deep down that I was ready to level up, but felt stuck on how to best position myself or even what the ideal next role should be. She guided me through a strategic, intentional process, helping me articulate the impact I'd already made, while co-creating a vision for the elevated role I was truly worthy of.

Steffani is the secret weapon you need in your corner— she has a gift for seeing your full potential, even before you can, and giving you the roadmap to get there.”

Working with Steffani was an absolute

My rare blend of HR leadership and hands-on AI know-how means I speak both languages — people and technology.

I have an insider’s perspective on what companies truly value in talent, performance, and leadership — and how AI can help you with all three.

BUT I DON’T JUST DOLE OUT TEXTBOOK PRACTICES.

I’m not a software engineer, and that’s the point. I understand people, organizations, careers, and change — and I use AI in real business scenarios and workflows every single day. With honest feedback and a practical, no-panic playbook, I help my clients:

Build an AI support system that fits how they actually work
Keep their voice, their judgment, and their confidential info theirs
Show up to the hard conversations prepared instead of panicked
Lead people through change with confidence (and a sense of humor)

Pay Transparency
Pay Structures
Salary Ranges

Or, better question:
do you know your worth?

If I can help                                understand what people need from AI, then I can                              help you understand what AI can do for you. And when the challenge goes beyond tech? I bring nearly two decades of HR experience to guide you through leadership decisions, and workplace dynamics where context and accountability matter.

I spent 17 years as a leader in human resources (similar to the length of Harry Styles, Taylor Swift, and Lady Gaga’s careers — my favorites!), which means I’m bringing serious star-level energy, insider perspective on what companies truly value, and a practical, no-panic playbook for making AI useful to real people — so you and your team can shine.
