Laura Rowley-Deputy Director, Seattle Jobs Initiative

Erin can truly provide "Services that fit your needs." She was able to take over my HR Management role quickly and seamlessly in a part-time capacity. Erin is very easy to work with, communicates well, and has a broad range of Human Resource knowledge and skills. Based on her abilities, I felt confident leaving her to meet our HR needs during my six-month absence. Any company would be in good hands with Erin.

Nancy Kim Blackham-HR Manager, Krekow Jennings

Erin was a pleasure to work with... she was the utmost professional, bringing expertise, insightful suggestions, and a "can-do" attitude to the table... the complete package. She is someone that I would highly recommend for any small business in need of an HR superstar. Erin brings great value to the table, and I hope that we will be able to work together again in the future.

Dennis Lapchis-IT Director, Krekow Jennings

Erin is a pleasure to work with. Her understanding of HR and Washington state law made it easy to write our employee manual. She has provided excellent guidance for our employees and is very willing to accommodate to many situations. I would highly recommend Erin to other companies seeking a HR professional to provide flexible services.
