Why “Front Porch”?

In the South, the front porch is more than just a place to sit — it’s where friends and family gather to share stories, dream big, and have the kinds of honest conversations that shape lives. That’s exactly the kind of space we create with our clients: a welcoming, strategic place to talk through challenges, build clarity, and shape sustainable people systems that support growth.

At Front Porch HR Consulting, we help growing companies build HR practices that work — not just in theory, but in everyday business life.

Who We Are

Front Porch HR Consulting was born from a deep understanding that people are at the heart of every successful business. After years of leading teams, partnering with organizations on talent strategy, and building HR infrastructure from the ground up, our founder saw firsthand how much impact thoughtful HR can have — and how much frustration can come without it.

What used to be career coaching for individuals has evolved into strategic HR consulting for organizations. Today, we partner with business leaders who want HR done right — systems that guide performance, improve retention, support managers, and reduce risk — all without the cost of a full-time hire.

We bring real-world HR leadership experience, practical solutions, and a collaborative approach to every engagement — from project-based consulting to ongoing, fractional support.

Our Experience

Before founding Front Porch HR Consulting, our journey took us through:

  • Leading teams in complex work environments

  • Designing recruiting and talent development strategies

  • Building early-career pipelines and support infrastructure

  • Partnering with universities, internal leadership teams, and HR partners to shape talent outcomes

This blend of operational experience, strategic insight, and hands-on people work gives us a unique perspective: we understand what leaders need, and we know how to deliver HR practices that help teams succeed.

How We Partner With Businesses

We work with companies that:

  • Lack a dedicated HR leader but need HR done well

  • Want to professionalize people systems without the overhead of a full-time hire

  • Are scaling quickly and need structure around hiring, onboarding, performance, and compliance

  • Value people strategy as a driver of growth, not an afterthought

Whether the need is tactical (policy and process design) or strategic (organizational development and leadership support), we meet you where you are and help you move forward.

Our Approach

  • Practical: We build solutions you can use today — no jargon, no unnecessary complexity.

  • Business-Focused: HR should support business goals — not distract from them.

  • Collaborative: We partner with leaders so your team feels confident and supported.

  • Outcome-Driven: You’ll get clear results — better processes, more confident managers, and a people strategy that scales.

At Front Porch HR Consulting, our work isn’t just about HR — it’s about helping organizations thrive through strong people systems.

Let’s Build Better HR — Together.

When leaders finally get the HR support they need, teams become stronger, turnover decreases, managers lead with clarity, and companies can grow without fear of people-related chaos.

At Front Porch HR Consulting, we help make that possible.
